Question: In the last couple of days, when I have been meditating I have been getting a desire not to breathe. Can you tell me what this is?
Sri Chinmoy: It is not a desire in your case. It is a most soulful, most powerful, most devoted experience. Breathing in and out in the normal way is not necessary when you concentrate on your heart. It is most pure and divine. This is a very good experience.
