Adhyaya 39 — Funeral Rites
आपिबेयुस्तथा वायुं पिबेद्योगी जितश्रमः ।
प्राङ्नाभ्यां हृदये चात्र तृतीये च तथोरसि ॥
āpibeyus tathā vāyuṃ pibed yogī jitaśramaḥ / prāṅ-nābhyāṃ hṛdaye cātra tṛtīye ca tathorasi //
اسی طرح یوگی تھکن کو فتح کرکے پران کا ‘پان’ کرے۔ اسے اگلے ناف کے مقام پر، دل میں، یہاں تیسرے مقام پر، اور اسی طرح سینے میں بھی قائم کرے۔

The verse stresses readiness and moderation: only one who is not strained should undertake deeper breath work, and the practice is paired with directed attention to internal loci to stabilize mind and prāṇa.
Not pancalakṣaṇa content; it is yogic praxis embedded in the Purāṇa’s instructional sections.
‘Drinking the wind’ indicates internalization of prāṇa; the navel/heart/chest loci suggest progressive interior centering where prāṇa is gathered and mind is anchored for concentration.
