Verse 68vahner viṣasya madhye tu cittaṃ sukha-mayaṃ kṣipet  kevalaṃ vāyu-pūrṇaṃ vā smarānandena yujyate One may cast one’s heart-mind, full of pleasure, into the center [point] between the ‘fire’ [at the root] and the ‘poison’ [at the tip] with either kevala-kumbhaka or pūraka-kumbhaka; thus one is connected to the bliss of passionate love.
Simplified Steps
When engaged in lovemaking or self-pleasuring, focus your attention intently on the pelvic floor (perineum)
When getting close to orgasm, hold your breath while maintaining focus on the pelvic floor, gathering your energy there
If the energy (prāṇa) enters the central channel, let it surge up to the heart
Repose in the bliss of love
