The Significance of Human Breath & Breathing is ….

Good News first:

The closest answer that I’m looking for came from:

1.  Pat Becker says: (Business Owners Fast Track to Internet Profits)

The breath or chi is the absolute life force of the human being. Beside the physical, life giving benefit chi supports and connects to our most profound self. It is the ultimate source of energy.

2. My Aussie mate (it’s OK you’re from Kiwiland, New Zealand originally)

Quote

“One Breath, One Life, One God. We are linked to life through the breath. As long as we are breathing, we can grow and evolve. The breath has a greater significance than a simple physical process. As it empowers the mind, the understanding of the breath has been a secret of the eastern philosophies for many centuries.”

Bad news:

Neither is close enough overall to win the FREE reading. Both of you are pretty close matching up the first hint though.

Let me explain.

First, I must confess that I would be surprised if you could give me the correct answer.  If you can, it means you’re pretty deep into yoga or a form of Eastern philosophy.

When I hinted that :

1. Nothing to do with life & death in your most likely way of thinking;

I was referring to the life force (Prana, Qi …) coming IN with your first breath when you came into this world; and the aprana going OUT with your last breath when you leave his world.

So our life starts with the first breath IN and ends with the last breathe OUT.

Wikipedia explains:

  1. Prana : Responsible for the beating of the heart and breathing. Prana enters the body through the breath and is sent to every cell through the circulatory system.
  2. Apana : Responsible for the elimination of waste products from the body through the lungs and excretory systems.

2. Something to do with the Ultimate Truth:

I was referring to yoga scripture which said the sound of human breathing was “So’Ham” (”Ham’Sa”). The syllable “Ham” derives from the primal sound “Om” (”AUM”), meaning “I”, the Ultimate Truth, the Ultimate Being.

3. Everything to do with the “Human’s Final Destination” (sort of borrowing Kevin Hogan’s unpublished book’s title):

I was referring to the nature of YOU was reflected by the SOUND of your breathe: So’Ham (I AM THAT).

So every time you breathe, you automatically repeat once the mantra So’Ham, I AM THAT. This is the Human’s Final Destination – Knowing WHO you really are in the first place. The auto repetition is called “Ajapa japa” in yoga, meaning mental repetition of mantra on its own without conscious effort. The trick is to become aware of such repetition by cultivating inner silence.

What I have revealed to you just now is truly one of esoteric secrets in spirituality.

In essence, you are a spiritual being having a human experience and not the other way round.

I have no religion, yet I’m religious.

So, Happy Easter to All!

    I think it’s interesting that physicians look for signs of life – not death – by checking someone’s breathing when in a life-threatening situation.

    To breathe is to live.

    Happy Easter!

    I am not too sure this relates to numerology but this is profound. Good food for thought.

  5. “In essence, you are a spiritual being having a human experience and not the other way round.” No doubt that this is true. In that sense, death of the physical self has little to do with the death of the spiritual self.

    Nice to know I came close. You go a lot deeper and are far more clear than I on the subject of breath. Do you do constant meditation with the breath? I get started and then forget to do it. The benefit at my level is in the remembering and starting again. As always, lots to comprehend.

  14. Hi John,
    I enjoyed what you wrote and it made me think. I like reading something that just doesn’t leave me immediately when it’s done.

  15. Hi John,

    what wonderful information about breathing in conjunction with Numerology. I don’t recall any of the generic numerology books really addressing CHI and the Breath of LIfe at all. You’re doing so as a numerology expert is certainly part of your unique expertise.

    All the best,

    Our word “inspiration” derives from inhale, and spirit. Breathing techniques can do much for our spirits.
