至上人格神啊！你进入众生之内，作为身中的内在主宰（Antaryāmī），调御普拉那等诸气的作用，从而维系一切生命。主啊，万有皆在你权下，愿你护佑我们远离诸般危难。
Through the mystic yoga practice called prāṇāyāma, the yogī controls the airs within the body to maintain the body in a healthy condition. In this way, the yogī comes to the point of trance and tries to see the Supersoul within the core of his heart. Prāṇāyāma is the means to attain samādhi, trance, in order to fully absorb oneself in seeing the Supreme Lord as antaryāmī, the Supersoul within the core of the heart.
