Śivasvarodaya
 
The life of that person becomes stabilised who moistens his
five-elemental body with the oil of Śiva's love and preserves
it with the Sun-like wind.
 
मारुतं बन्धयित्वा तु सूर्य बन्धयते यदि ।
अभ्यासाज्जीवते जीवः सूर्यकालेऽपि वञ्चिते ॥३२८॥
 
A person who, centrolling the flow of air in his breath
avoids the Sun Svara throughout the day time, can thus enjoy
a long life through this practice of arresting the Sun.
 
गगनात्स्स्रवते चन्द्रः कायपद्मानि सिञ्चयेत् ।
कर्मयोगसदाभ्यासैरमरः शशिसंश्रयात् ॥३२९ ॥
 
Because the Moon roams in the sky its beams falling down
moisten this body-like lotus. Thus if a Karma-yogī_takes the
shelter of Moon through practice, he becomes immortal.
 
शशांक वारयेद्रात्रौ दिवा वार्यो दिवाकरः ।
 
इत्यभ्यासरतो नित्यं सयोगी नात्रसंशयः ॥३३० ॥
 
One who keeps practicing to avoid the Moon Svara in the
night and the Sun Svara in the day, is the real Yogi-there
is no doubt about it.
 
यदैकत्र वहते यस्य मारुतः ।
भवेन्मृत्युः संपूर्ण वत्सरत्रये ॥ ३३१ ॥
 
अहोरात्रे
तदा तस्य
 
If the breath of a person flows throughout the night through
one nostril then he would within three years, meet his
death.
 
अहोरात्रद्वयं यस्य पिंगलायां सदा गतिः ।
 
तस्य वर्षद्वयं प्रोक्तं जीवितं तत्त्ववेदिभिः ॥ ३३२॥
 
According to the knowers of Elements if the breath of a
person remains flowing through Pingala for two consecutive
nights then he has a life of only two years.
 
त्रिरात्रं वहते यस्य वायुरेकपुटे स्थितः
 
तदा संवत्सरायुस्तं प्रवदंति मनीषिणः ॥ ३३३॥
