pipīla-sparśa-velāyāṃ prathate paramaṃ sukham ॥The practitioner who stops all the streams of prāṇa-śakti [from flowing out through the senses and orifices] will experience it [enter the central channel and] slowly rise upward. In time he will experience a sensation [like the crawling] of ants [on his skin]; then supreme happiness manifests.
