VIBHUTI PAAD SUTRA --39

    UDANA  JAYAT  JALA  PANKA  KANTAKA  ADISHU  ASANGA  UTKRANTICHY

BY HAVING VICTORY OVER UDANA, ONE CAN WALK OVER WITHOUT  TOUCHING

WATER, MUD, OR THORN  AND HE ATTAINS UPWARD MOVEMENT AFTER DEATH (OR

                                              HAS  DEATH WHEN HE DESIRES.)

    In last few Sutra we are being told about the powers that one attains when he or she concentrates on different things. In this Sutra we are told about what happens when we have control over UDANA.So we need to understand what is UDANA ,

   As we know there are 5 PRANAS, namely PRANA , APANA , UDANA , SAMANA, AND VYANA. The various  PRANAS  can be considered as a function of energy . When we eat or drink the food goes down and the residue -undigested material comes out These things are due to the APANA. So the gastrointestinal tract is place of APANA. The food is digested and then the nutrients are absorbed and this happens due to liver,pancreas and stomach and small intestine etc .This is due to SAMANA. The location of SAMANA is bellow the heart and above the belly button. If something bad, irritating comes in the body,it is thrown out -bad food from stomach , tears from eyes, cough and sneezing etc . This is due to UDANA. The place for UDANA is nose, throat,eyes, etc The fresh air is taken in and oxygen enters blood and it is circulated by heart . This is the PRANA. The place for the PRANA is from heart to nostrils , including lungs . The various organs have to function properly and need to get the nutrients and the oxygen . This may be stated as circulation or VYAN.

      So the UDANA is throwing out or LIFTING UP .So when one does meditation and has perfected control on various aspects of Prana he achieves powers. UDANA or UDDANA is flying . So when one has this power or control . he can be floating over water or mud or thorn without touching them .
    He also 'goes upward' after death. He follows  NORTHERN PATHWAY. Northern as oppose to SOUTHERN path is going towards the SUN or the SPIRITUAL EYE or the SAHASTRADHAR CHAKRA.North is upwards and SOUTH is downwards -towards procreation-excretion-hunger -the lower CHAKRAS.
