8. The learned Yogi should, keeping his body straight,
with his head, neck and chest erect, and drawing the senses
and the mind into the heart, cross all the dreadful currents of

repetition of Om in combination with meditation on its
meanings).

9, The learned Yogi, with his actions properly regulated
and controlled, should control his
prana
(air inhailed) inside
in practising yoga, and, on feeling is weakness ( uneasiness in
further controlling it) should breathe out the same slowly
through his nostrils. Then he should, without negligence or
being distracted in the least, keep his hold on the mind as a
good driver keeps his hold on the reins attached to restive
horses.

One should practise Yoga in a place which is even,
clean and free from stone, sand, fire (heat), noise or dampness,
which is pleasing to the mind and whose scenery is attractive
to the eyes, which is lovely ( cave or other such place) and is
free from wind.
