Where there is a balance, there is a union of breath of Ida and Pingala resulting in the activation of Sushmana. A space of rising above this physical body, physical space which soul or no soul occupies. This actualisation of both the yin and yang emerges takes you into a space of total union within yourself, to a space of no gender, no physical form. It can be experienced momentarily by exploring the physical union too but according to tantra can be attained within oneself by enhancing both the energies through the rhythm and play of breath. The sun and the moon within us.
