Baked in the fire of yoga and meditation, your mind will be peaceful and focused. The pot made of clay, if not baked in the furnace is raw. If you pour water in the unbaked earthen pot, the pot will break, but if it is backed nicely in the furnace, then you can use it to store water for many years. Similarly in our body there are so many holes, flaws, loopholes, shortcomings, ups and downs and many defects. So we have to first purify the fifty body parts.
By the practice of Kriya Yoga technique you can change your life force into tranquil and peaceful spiritual energy. Feel that you are the power of God. You watch and experience. It is why in every scripture it is written that you have to be born from above through water and spirit. It is said in the Taittiriya Upanishad that if you can lift up your all centers to the soul, then you can remain free and detached. If the soul does not pull breath then you have nothing. You have to remain in a point, in atom. This is formless, no one can touch atom, no one can cut atom, no one can burn atom. Atom means soul, atom means power of God, and atom means God. A point is of existence less existence. It is a state where you almost lose your existence but you exist.
God is everywhere. In the fire the power of God is there. Fire can't burn fire. The fire is God. Water is God. Air is God. That is remaining in your each center. Vacuum is God. Earth is God. So you are to watch, whole day and night. The whole power is already on the top.
