Description

The overwhelming importance of maintaining
the equal balance of these two currents will be appreciated
when it is known that the excessive preponderance
of either causes death; each displaying
characteristic symptoms, and causing negative or
cardiac death and positive or spinal death. The
former is commonly diagnosed as heart failure,
and there is little doubt that in many cases the patient
could be carried safely through the critical
moment if the attendants stopped the left nostril
and made the positive current of Prdna flow.
There are cases where exactly the opposite treatment
might be necessary. But if the nurse could
not determine which breath was flowing, a few
alternate breaths would assist nature to restore the
balance.
