Hatha Yoga Pradeepika Ch-4, Po-9

Ârambha Avasthâ.

When the Brahma granthi (in the heart) is pierced through by Prââyâma, then a sort of happiness is experienced in the vacuum of the heart, and the anâhat sounds, like various tinkling sounds of ornaments, are heard in the body. 69.

In the ârambha, a Yogî's body becomes divine, glowing, healthy, and emits a divine swell. The whole of his heart becomes void. 70.
