大陸網友迴響:
Dharma Mittra（达摩.弥陀）的《ASANAS 608 Yoga Poses》是闻风最早买的一本体式图谱书籍，从中学到了很多东西。 尤其读到他为了给自己的体式照相留影，用嘴含着快门球（那种早期的尼康相机）自己给自己照时，深为他的精神感动。 他是将自己的体式图籍作为向导师致敬的礼物而制作的。 他也谈到了当初的一些印度瑜伽师到了西方以后的变化。 出版本书的时候很多过去的照片底片已经无法再用，他在过了将近20年之后，从新拍摄。 虽然今非昔比，他的体式和原先没有多少区别。 据考察，他的体式有很多是自己所创，按他的说法，是一种自然而然流动出来的身体姿态，这也是只有在对身心有深刻理解了之后产生的对“人的神性”的不同表达和膜拜方式。 能放下时证菩提 无挂碍处得受记------------------------------- 闻风瑜伽教学和感悟blog http://blog.sina.com.cn/u/1266249227

说它简单是因为；只需要深吸气，最好是腹式呼吸，
让尽可能多的空气进入体内，然后呼气——张大嘴巴喉咙收紧（类似喉式呼吸）
让气流通过喉咙并匀速的慢慢闭上嘴巴！声带震动自然就会发出声音。
嘴巴在最大位置时——
a并拢过程中——o并拢以后空气从鼻子流出——m
