  1. Just as an elephant imbibes water through its trunk, so thus, in that same manner, one should always draw in the Prāṇa¹ through the orifice of the Suṣumnā (central channel), (which is like the stem of a) water lily.
  2. Upward elemental power of the breath. वज्रदण्डेन सम्भूता मणयश्चैकविंशतिः | सुषुम्णायां स्थिताः सर्वे सूत्रे मणिगणा इव || १३१ || vajradaṇḍena sambhūtā maṇayaś caikaviṁśatiḥ | suṣumṇāyāṁ sthitāḥ sarve sūtre maṇigaṇā iva || 131 ||
  3. Twenty-one gems¹ arise from the Vajra² Daṇḍa (spinal column),³ all situated in the Suṣumṇā, like beads strung on a thread.
  4. The word ‘gem’, from the Latin ‘gemma’ “a swelling bud” (which arises and blooms); cognate with Proto-Indo-European ‘ǵemb’ “to bud, to sprout.”
  5. The word ‘vajra’ describes the elemental power of the breath in terms of ‘lightning’ energy which rapidly flows up the Vajra Daṇḍa, the ‘thunderbolt staff’ (of the spinal column).
  6. In regard to the “twenty-one gems” which “arise from the Vajra Daṇḍa (spinal column),” this garland of twenty-one gems represents the twenty-one Prajāpatis, which collectively form the Hiraṇyagarbha (shining womb of all creation). Quote: “You are the destroyer of all, the creator of all; you are the very Hiraṇyagarbha¹; you are the progenitor of creation in the form of Dakṣa and the other Prajāpati’s; you are Indra (the king of the gods), you are Hayagrīva the steed necked incarnation of Viṣṇu; you are the arrow (Viṣṇu himself, as he became such in the hands of Mahādeva at the burning of Tripura); you are the lord of the universe; you are the mouth of Viṣṇu; you are the four-faced Padmaja; you are the Brāhmaṇa (i.e., wise), you are Agni, Pavana, etc. (i.e., the presiding deity of every object in the universe).”
  7. Shining womb of all creation. Section XXIII, Astika Parva, Adi Parva, Mahābhārata. English translation by His Divine Grace, Śrī Śrīmad Bhaktivedānta Nārāyaṇa Gosvāmī Mahārāja. The twenty-one Prajāpati’s: 1. Brahmā, 2. Rudra, 3. Manu, 4. Dakṣa, 5. Bhṛgu, 6. Dharma, 7. Tapa, 8. Yama, 9. Marīci, 10 Aṅgiras, 11. Atri, 12. Pulastya, 13. Pulaha, 14. Kratu, 15. Vasiṣṭha, 16. Parameṣṭhi, 17. Sūrya, 18. Candra, 19. Kardama,
  8. Krodha, and 21. Vikrīta. N.B.* Wearing the garland of twenty-one Prajāpatis is achieved by “placing the finger of One's intellect through the ring of truth,” i.e., by One's lucid consciousness (in the vehicle of the light-body) passing over the threshold of life-and-death into the mouth of the Hiraṇyagarbha. मोक्षमार्गे प्रसिद्धा सा सुषुम्णा विश्वधारिणी | यत्र वै निर्जितः कालश् चन्द्रसूर्यनिबन्धनात् || १३२ || mokṣamārge prasiddhā sā suṣumṇā viśvadhāriṇī | yatra vai nirjitaḥ kālaś candrasūryanibandhanāt || 132 ||
