Why is this? Because the incoming air is sharp and swift, its characteristics are coarse; because the out-breath is sluggish and slow, it is subtle. Furthermore, knowing lightness and heaviness: knowing that during the in-breath it is light, and during the out-breath it is heavy. Why is this? When the in-breath is inside the body, it makes the body light; during the out-breath, when the body lacks air, one feels the body is heavy. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 7.48](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.7.48) - [Next: 7.50](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.7.50) - [Up: 7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.7) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916~en-mt.7.49) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.7.49](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1916.7.49) · Pramāṇa
