“Dr. Ralph Riggs of Louisiana State University, and Dr. Leland House of the Medical Evangelists College, agreed in the discussion that ‘if you breathe through your mouth, you get 10 to 17 per cent less oxygen than a nose breather gets. Dr. Riggs added that nose-breathers don’t snore as much. ‘Moreover,’ he continued, ‘I can tell in 70 per cent of the cases what side a person sleeps on by examining his nose. A person is directed to turn over every hour or so while he sleeps. One side of the nose takes it easy while the other side takes over the task of doing most of the breathing. If you sleep on one side more than on the other it will show up in your nose.’”

“The nostrils are equal during samadhi or death.”

Yogis have no thyroid problems because they learn to control the hyoid bone and epiglottis.

“Oh, terrible, Baba! Mosquitoes kept biting me all night. They wouldn’t leave me alone!”

“Not mosquitoes. One mosquito.”

“Well, maybe it was just a few mosquitoes. But they kept biting me all night.”

“Not mosquitoes. Just one mosquito. And it was ME coming to wake you up at 3:00 a.m. to meditate, but you went …”

Sai Baba slapped his arm.

1) Find out “who’s the matter.”

One of my friends traded jobs and her high blood pressure returned to normal.

Her doctor refused to believe she had dumped her meds, and accused her of getting them with another doctor’s prescription.

2) Yawn and stretch as much as possible.

High blood pressure has to have an escape valve, like the safety-valve in a tea kettle.

Pneumatic pressure controls hydraulic pressure, rarely the other way around.

That’s why Yogis almost always have low blood pressure (as low as 60 over 20).

3) Massage the bottom of the feet.

Important blood pressure points are located on the soles of the feet.

4) Watch fish in an aquarium.

This is good for a blood pressure drop of at least five points.

Obviously, if a person has nightmares about fish, this won’t work.

5) The cool colors (blue, indigo, violet) tend to reduce blood pressure.

This won’t work (and can even elevate blood pressure) if a person has a color engram association with a selected color.

Adano Ley (Swami Nitty-Gritty) said …

“This polarity [of acidity and alkalinity] changes every hour [with the alternation of the breath in the right and left nostrils]. Very fast breathing is a hyper condition, or alkalinity. The breath comes in too soon. High blood pressure results. Breathing too slow is a hypo condition, or acidity. The breath comes in too late. The result is low blood pressure.”
