हठयोग प्रदीपिका (योगी स्वात्माराम - ज्योत्स्ना टीका सहित सटीक)

HAṬHAYOGAPRADĪPIKĀ 55 97. He, who drinks daily the Amarī and inhales it day by day, should practise well Vajrolī. This is called Amarolī. 98. He should mix ashes with the nectar flowing from the Moon by the practice [of Amarolī] and smear it on the principal limbs [of the body]. Then divine sight is obtained. Divine sight means ability to see the past, the present and the future, as also hidden things. 99. If a woman, making herself expert through sufficient practice, draws up the semen of man, and preserves her own through [the practice of] Vajrolī, she also becomes a Yoginī. 100. Without any doubt, even the least part of her seminal fluid is not lost. In her body, the Nāda becomes bindu itself. That is, the Nāda that begins at the Mūlādhāra goes to the heart and unites with the bindu. The following may perhaps throw some light on these processes. The seminal fluid of man is called bīja or bindu, and that of the woman, rajas. By the external union of these two, a child is produced. But, only when these unite inter- nally, i.e. when the things that are really denoted by these expres- sions, unite in the inner man, he is called a Yogin. The bindu is said to be of the nature of the Moon and rajas of the nature of the Sun. From the union of these, is attained the supreme state. The bindu is capable of giving svarga, meaning temporal pleasures, as also mokṣa, i.e. emancipation. It can lead a man into virtue or vice. In other words, understood literally, it leads to the attainment of worldly pleasures, and hence vice; but if understood and practised according to its inner sense, it leads to virtue and emancipation.
