Chapter 5 verse 27
“Shutting out all external contacts and fixing the gaze
as though between the eyebrows, equalizing the outgoing and incoming breath
moving within the nostrils”
This is the first sloka I have encountered which gets
into meditation and raja yoga in the Bhagavat Gita. There is an entire chapter
coming up on meditation in chapter 6. The importance of watching the breath has
been highlighted by Lord here with focus on both incoming and outgoing breath
and the concentration of the eyes and attention in between the 2 eyebrows.
Attempt should be made to bring mind through a single chant to a thoughtless
state. It is very difficult but with God’s grace is achievable.
