CHAPTER LIV.
Quiescence of Uddálaka.
Argument. Uddálaka meditates on the form of Vishnu, and his quietus in and coalescence with it.
Vasishtha continued:—Thinking himself to be raised to this state of his transcendency, the saint sat in his posture of padmásana with his half shut eye-lids, and began to meditate in his translucent mind.
2. He then thought that the syllable Om, is the true emblem of Brahma; and he rises to the highest state, who utters this monosyllabic word.
3. Then he uttered the word with an elevated voice and high note, which rang with a resonance like the ringing of a bell.
4. The utterance of his Omkára, shook the seat of his intellect in the cranium; and reached to the seat of the pure soul, in the topmost part of his head.
5. The pranava or Omkára, consisting of three and half matrás or instants, fills the whole body with the breath of inspiration; by having its first part or the letter a, uttered with an acute accent (Udátta).
6. He let out the rechaka or the exhaling breath, whereby the internal air was extracted from the whole body; and it became as empty as the sea, after it was sucked up by Agastya.
