Mbh.3.212.10898 | And by the coalition of Prana and other airs, a reaction combination ensues, and the heat generated thereby is known as the internal heat of the human system which causes the digestion of our food. |

Mbh.3.212.10902 | The Prana air, acted on by the heat strikes against the extremity of the Apana region and then recoiling, it reacts on the heat. |
Mbh.3.212.10904 | And the Prana and all other airs of the system are seated in the navel. |
Mbh.3.212.10905 | The arteries issuing from the heart run upwards and downwards, as also in oblique directions; they carry the best essence of our food, and are acted upon by the ten Prana airs. |
Mbh.3.212.10906 | This is the way by which patient Yogins who have overcome all difficulties, and who view things with an impartial and equal eye, with their souls seated in the brain, find the Supreme Spirit, the Prana and the Apana airs are thus present in the body of all creatures. |
Mbh.3.218.11113 | This Brahmic fire has a tendency to move upwards and hence it is called Urdhvabhag, and is seated in the vital air called Prana. |
Mbh.3.219.11124 | And when the invocation was made with the vyahriti hymns and with the aid of the five sacred fires, Kasyapa, Vasistha, Prana, the son of Prana, Chyavana, the son of Angiras, and Suvarchaka, there arose a very bright energy force full of the animating creative principle, and of five different colours. |
Mbh.3.219.11135 | Bhanu was the godson of Chyavana, Saurabha, the son of Suvarchaka, and Anudatta, the son of Prana. |
Mbh.5.46.2587 | The vital air called Apana is swallowed up by the Air called Prana; Prana is swallowed up by the Will, and the Will by the Intellect, and the Intellect by the Supreme Soul. |
Mbh.5.99.4687 | Here dwell many regenerate and great Rishis observant of vows called Go' and emaciated with the recitation and study of the Vedas, and who, having suspended the vital air called Prana, have attained to heaven by force of their austerities. |
Mbh.6.28.1341 | Some offer up the upward vital wind Prana to the downward vital wind apana; and others, the downward vital wind to the upward vital wind; some, arresting the course of both the upward and the downward vital winds, are devoted to the restraint of the vital winds. |
Mbh.6.32.1502 | He who at the time of his departure, with a steady mind, endued with reverence, with power of abstraction, and directing the life-breath called Prana between the eye-brows, thinketh of that ancient seer, who is the ruler of all, who is minuter than the minutest atom, who is the ordainer of all, who is inconceivable in form, and who is beyond all darkness, cometh unto that Divine and Supreme Male Being, I will tell thee in brief about that seat which persons conversant with the Vedas declare to be indestructible, which is entered by ascetics freed from all longings, and in expectation of which people practise the vows of Brahmacharins. |
Mbh.6.32.1503 | Casting off this body, he who departeth, stopping up all the doors, confining the mind within the heart, placing his own life-breath called Prana between the eye-brows, resting on continued meditation, uttering this one syllable Om which is Brahman, and thinking of me, attaineth to the highest goal |
Mbh.7.57.2665 | The life-breaths also, called Prana, Apana, Samana, and the others, when Rama ruled his kingdom, all performed their functions. |

Mbh.12.183.11069 | Through the breath called Prana a living creature is enabled to move. |
Mbh.12.184.11118 | The wind or breath called Prana, residing within the head and the heat that is there, cause all kinds of exertion. |
Mbh.12.184.11119 | That Prana is the living creature, the universal soul, the eternal Being, and the Mind, Intellect, and Consciousness of all living creatures, as also all the objects of the senses |
Mbh.12.184.11120 | Thus the living creature is, in every respect, caused by Prana to move about and exert. |
Mbh.12.184.11127 | That heat, residing between Apana and Prana, in the region of the navel, operates, with the aid of those two breaths, in digesting all food that is taken by a living creature. |
Mbh.12.184.11132 | The heat that dwells in Prana is called Ushman. |
Mbh.12.184.11134 | The breath called Prana, the bearer of a current of heat, descends from the head downwards to the extremity of the anal canal and thence is sent upwards once more. |
Mbh.12.184.11139 | Urged by the ten kinds of breaths having Prana for their first, the ducts already mentioned, branching out from the heart, convey the liquid juices that food yields, upwards, downwards, and in transverse directions |
Mbh.12.184.11141 | Even thus is heat panted in the breaths called Prana and Apana and others, of all embodied creatures. |
Mbh.12.186.11187 | It is fire or heat that sustains the breaths called Prana and the others. |
Mbh.12.188.11297 | The mind should be united with Prana, and Prana should then be held within Brahma. |
Mbh.12.199.12111 | Fixing the vital breaths Prana, Apana, Samana, Udana and Vyana in the heart, they concentrated the mind in Prana and Apana united together. |
Mbh.12.212.12882 | In the same way the five-fold breaths are acquired by it, viz, Prana, Apana, Vyana, Udana, and Samana, which contribute to keep the body agoing. |
Mbh.12.218.13234 | Intelligence, stomachic heat, and the vital breaths, called Prana, etc, |
Mbh.12.218.13237 | the power dwelling in those objects in consequence of which they become capable of being perceived, the faculties dwelling in the senses in consequence of which they succeed in perceiving them, the mind, the vital breaths called Prana, Apana and the rest, and the various juices and humours that are the results of the digestive organs, flow from the three organs already named |
Mbh.12.235.14564 | When sacrifices and religious rites are made its upastha, shame its varutha, Upaya and Apaya its kuvara, the breath called Apana its aksha, the breath called Prana its yuga, knowledge and the allotted period of existence its points for tying the steeds, heedfulness its handsome vandhura, the assumption of good behaviour its nemi, vision, touch, scent, and hearing its four steeds, wisdom its nabhi, all the scriptures its pratoda, certain knowledge of the scriptural declarations its driver, the soul its firmly-seated rider, faith and self-restraint its fore-runners, renunciation its inseparable companion following behind and bent upon doing it good, purity the path along which it goes, meditation or union with Brahma its goal, then may that car reach Brahma and shine there in effulgence |
Mbh.12.238.14725 | Prana, Apana and the three other vital breaths have the wind for their refuge. |
Mbh.12.261.15866 | Surya, Chandramas, the god of wind, Brahman, Prana, Kratu, and Yama these dwell in living creatures, There are men that live by trafficking in living creatures! |
Mbh.12.274.16856 | There is a Being called Mahat, which, with the aid of the wind called Prana, upholds this combination containing the twenty things that have been named, and in the matter of the destruction of that body the wind which is generally spoken of as the cause is only the instrument in the hands of that same Mahat. |
Mbh.12.283.17561 | His praises having thus been hymned, the great god, Mahadeva, suspending both Prana and Apana the two foremost of the five life-breaths by shutting his mouth properly, and casting benignant glances on every side, showed himself there. |
Mbh.12.284.17712 | Thou art the breaths called Prana, Apana, Samana, Udana, and Vyana. |
Mbh.12.301.18878 | Knowing that this body, that is endued with six and ten possessions, is the result of the quality of Sattwa, understanding fully the nature of the physical organism and the character of the Chetana that dwells within it, recognising the one existent Being that live in the body viz, the Soul, which stands aloof from every concern of the body and in which no sin can attach, realising the nature of that second object, viz; the acts of persons attached to the objects of the senses, understanding also the character of the senses and the sensual objects which have their refuge in the Soul, appreciating the difficulty of Emancipation and the scriptures that bear upon it knowing fully the nature of the vital breaths called Prana, Apana, Samana, Vyana, and Udana, as also the two other breaths, viz, the one going downward and the other moving upward indeed, knowing those seven breaths ordained to accomplish seven different functions, ascertaining the nature of the Prajapatis and the Rishis and the high paths, many in number, of virtue or righteousness, and the seven Rishis and the innumerable royal Rishis, O scorcher of foes, and the great celestial Rishis and the other regenerate Rishis endued with the effulgence of the Sun, beholding all these falling away from their puissance in course of many long ages, O monarch, hearing of the destruction of even of all the mighty beings in the universe, understanding also the inauspicious end that is attained, O king, by creatures of sinful acts, and the miseries endured by those that fall into the river Vaitarani in the realms of Yama, and the inauspicious wanderings of creatures through diverse wombs, and the character of their residence in the unholy uterus in the midst of blood and water and phlegm and urine and faeces, all of foul smell, and then in bodies that result from the union of blood and the vital seed, of marrow and sinews, abounding with hundreds of nerves and arteries and forming an impure mansion of nine doors, comprehending also what is for his own good what those divers combinations are which are productive of good beholding the abominable conduct of creatures whose natures are characterised by Darkness or Passion or Goodness, O chief of Bharata's race, conduct that is reprehended, in view of its incapacity to acquire Emancipation, by the followers of the Sankhya doctrine who are fully conversant with the Soul, beholding the swallowing up of the Moon and the Sun by Rahu, the falling of stars from their fixed positions and the diversions of constellations from their orbits, knowing the sad separation of all united objects and the diabolical behaviour of creatures in devouring one another, seeing the absence of all intelligence in the infancy of human beings and the deterioration and destruction of the body, marking the little attachment creatures have to the quality of Sattwa in consequence of their being overwhelmed by wrath and stupefaction, beholding also only one among thousands of human beings resolved to struggle after the acquisition of Emancipation, understanding the difficulty of attaining to Emancipation according to what is stated in the scriptures, seeing the marked solicitude that creatures manifest for all unattained objects and their comparative indifference to all objects that have been attained marking the wickedness that results from all objects of the senses O king and the repulsive bodies, O son of Kunti, of persons reft of life, and the residence, always fraught with grief, of human beings, O Bharata, in houses in the midst of spouses and children, knowing the end of those terrible and fallen men who become guilty of slaying Brahmanas, and of those wicked Brahmanas that are addicted to the drinking of alcoholic stimulants, and the equally sad end of those that become criminally attached to the spouses of their preceptors, and of those men, O Yudhishthira, that do not properly reverence their mothers, as also of those that have no reverence and worship to offer to the deities, understanding also, with the help of that knowledge which their philosophy imparts, the end that of all perpetrators of wicked acts, and the diverse ends that overtake those who have taken birth among the intermediate orders, ascertaining the diverse declarations of the Vedas, the courses of seasons, the fading of years, of months, of fortnights, and of days, beholding directly the waxing and the waning of the Moon, seeing the rising and the ebbing of the seas, and the diminution of wealth and its increase once more, and the separation of united objects, the lapse of Yugas, the destruction of mountains, the drying up of rivers, the deterioration of the purity of the several orders and the end also of that deterioration occurring repeatedly, beholding the birth, decrepitude, death, and sorrows of creatures, knowing truly the faults attaching to the body and the sorrows to which human beings are subject, and the vicissitudes to which the bodies of creatures are subject, and understanding all the faults that attach to their own souls, and also all the inauspicious faults that attach to their own bodies the followers of the Sankhya philosophy succeed in attaining to Emancipation. |
Mbh.12.306.19231 | With-drawing the senses from their objects by the aid of the mind, one possessed of intelligence, having made oneself pure, should agreeably to the two and twenty modes of transmitting the Prana breath, unite the Jiva-soul with That which transcends the four and twentieth topic called Ignorance or Prakriti which is regarded by the wise as dwelling in every part of the body and as transcending decay and destruction. |
Mbh.12.310.19543 | Then, O monarch, come the breath that rises upward viz, Prana and those that have a transverse motion viz, Saman, Udana, and Vyana. |
Mbh.12.328.20915 | From Udana sprang Vyana arose Apana, and lastly from Apana sprung the wind called Prana. |
Mbh.12.328.20916 | That invincible scorcher of all foes, viz, Prana, became childless. |
Mbh.12.328.20918 | The wind is the cause of the different functions of all living creatures, and because living creatures are enabled to live by it, therefore is the wind called Prana or life. |
Mbh.12.338.21695 | Thou art he who is divested of all attributes, who is the Witness of all the worlds, who is called Kshetrajna, who is the foremost of all Beings, who is Infinite, who is called Purusha, who is the great Purusha, who is the foremost of all Purushas, who is the soul of the three attributes, who is called the Foremost, who is Amrita nectar, who is called Immortal, who is called Ananta Sesha, who is Space who is without beginning, who is both Manifest and Unmanifest as existent and not-existent things, who is said to have his home in Truth who is the first of gods Narayana, who is the giver of wealth or of the fruits of acts, identified with Daksha and other Lords of the Creation, who is the Aswattha and other big trees, who is the four-headed Brahman, who is the Lord of all created Beings, who is the Lord of Speech who is the Lord of the universe or Indra, who is the all-pervading Soul, who is the Sun, who is the breath called Prana, who is the Lord of the waters viz, Varuna, who is identifiable with the Emperor or the King, who is identifiable with the Regents of the several points of the compass, who is the refuge of the universe when it is dissolved in the final destruction who is Undisplayed unrevealed, who is the giver of the Vedas unto Brahman, who is identifiable with the sacrifices and Vedic studies achieved by Brahmanas with the aid of their bodies, who is identifiable with the four principal orders of the deities, who is every one of those four orders, who is possessed of effulgence, who is possessed of great effulgence, who is he unto whom the seven largest offerings in sacrifices are presented with the Gayatri and other sacred mantras, who is Yama, who is Chitragupta and the other attendants of Yama, who is called the wife of Yama, who is that order of the deities called Tushita, who is that other order called Mahatushita, who is the universal grinder Death, who is desire and all diseases that have been created for aiding the advent of Death, who is health and freedom from disease, who is subject to desire and passions, who is free from the influence of desire and passions, who is Infinite as exhibited in species and forms, who is he that is chastised, who is he that is the chastiser, who is all the lesser sacrifices like Agnihotra and others, who is all the larger sacrifices like those called Brahma, etc, |

Mbh.13.161.13455 | He is, again, those breaths called Prana and Apana in the bodies of all embodied beings. |
Mbh.14.17.551 | That wind which resides in the vital breaths called Prana and Apana occurring within this compound of the five primal elements, rushes upwards, from a situation of distress, leaving the embodied creature. |
Mbh.14.18.599 | That Jiva, entering all the limbs of the foetus part by part, accepting the attribute of mind, and residing within all the regions that belong to Prana, supports life. |
Mbh.14.20.745 | The life-breaths called Prana and Apana and Samana and Vyana and Udana flow from it, and it is that into which they again enter. |
Mbh.14.20.746 | The breaths Prana and Apana move between Samana and Vyana. |
Mbh.14.20.748 | Between Apana and Prana, Udana dwells, pervading all. |
Mbh.14.20.749 | Hence, Prana and Apana do not desert a sleeping person. |
Mbh.14.21.785 | Upon that authority can it be said that Mati Prana takes refuge in Mind. |
Mbh.14.21.786 | Why, again, in dreamless slumber, though separated from Mind, does not Prana apprehend all objects? |
Mbh.14.21.788 | The Brahmana said, The Apana breath, becoming the lord ie, bringing the Prana under its control, in consequence of such lordship over it, makes it identical with itself. |
Mbh.14.21.789 | That restrained motion of the Prana breath which for the time becomes identical with that of the Apana has been said to be the motion of the mind. |
Mbh.14.21.790 | Hence the mind is dependent upon Prana, not Prana upon the mind. |
Mbh.14.21.791 | Therefore, in dreamless slumber, upon the disappearance of mind, Prana does not disappear. |
Mbh.14.21.803 | The goddess Word used always to dwell between Prana and Apana. |
Mbh.14.21.804 | But, O blessed one, sinking into Apana, though urged upwards, in consequence of becoming dissociated from Prana, she ran to Prajapati and said, Be gratified with me, O holy one, |
Mbh.14.21.805 | The Prana appeared, once more fostering Word. |
Mbh.14.21.814 | The Brahmana said, The Word that is generated in the body by Prana, then attains to Apana from Prana. |
Mbh.14.23.862 | The learned know this to be a great principle that Prana and Apana and Udana and Samana and Vyana are the five sacrificing priests |
Mbh.14.23.865 | The Brahmana said, The wind nursed by Prana afterwards takes birth in Apana. |
Mbh.14.23.873 | Prana said, Upon my extinction all the life-breaths become extinct in the bodies of living creatures. |
Mbh.14.23.877 | The Brahmana continued, Prana then became extinct and once more moved about. |
Mbh.14.23.879 | Thou art not the foremost amongst us, O Prana. |
Mbh.14.23.881 | Prana then moved about, and unto him Apana spoke' |
Mbh.14.23.887 | Only Prana is under thy dominion. |
Mbh.14.23.896 | At this, Prana and Apana and Udana and Samana addressed him, saying, Thou art not the foremost among us, O Vyana! |
Mbh.14.23.910 | Then Udana, after having gone into extinction, began once more to move about, Prana and Apana and Samana and Vyana said, unto him, O Udana, thou art not the foremost one among us, only Vyana is under thy dominion' |
Mbh.14.24.923 | Is it Prana, or Apana, or Samana, or Vyana, or Udana' |
Mbh.14.24.932 | From the semen, united with blood, first flows Prana. |
Mbh.14.24.933 | Upon the semen being modified by Prana, flows Apana. |
Mbh.14.24.940 | In the union of semen and blood, generated by Samana and Vyana, the pair that consists of Prana and Apana, enters, moving transversely and upwards, Vyana and Samana both form a pair that moves transversely. |
Mbh.14.24.948 | Prana and Apana are portions of the oblation of clarified butter. |
Mbh.14.25.985 | The upward life-wind Prana is the Stotra of that sacrifice. |
Mbh.14.39.1570 | Prana, Apana, and Udana; these also are fraught with the three qualities. |
Mbh.14.42.1619 | Prana and Apana, and Udana and Samana and Vyana, these five winds are always closely attached to the soul. |
Mbh.14.44.1817 | The syllable Om is the first of all the Vedas, and the life-wind Prana is the first of all winds. |
