6. SIXTH EXERCISE
"By blowing out, you cleanse your mind; this
is an electric process. And by breathing out softly, you cleanse your heart;
this is a magnetic process. 'God, let Your Spirit come and cleanse me'
- this is the explanation of the blowing out; this is what one says inside
one's mind. And while softly breathing out, the following words are said
silently: 'God, let Your Spirit come and bless me.'"
DESCRIPTION
Invocation:
"I will walk upon the Path of Truth"
(Shte hodja v putja na Istinata).
Same as the first exercise: hands and arms down by the
sides, feet together, posture fresh.
Movement sequence:
Step backward with the right foot and squat, allowing
the right knee to lightly touch the ground. At the same time, bring the
arms in front of the chest, elbows bent and palms facing each other but
not touching, fingers pointing forward. While remaining in the squatting
position, the hands and arms reach forward with force, remaining parallel
to each other, and one blows out strongly through the mouth, making the
sound "hou," (as in "hood). The arms are then tucked back
in front of the chest as before, and the blowing out reaching forward is
repeated five more times (a total of six times).
After the sixth blowing out, the elbows bend so that
the hands can come in front of the mouth, with the thumbs, index and middle
fingers touching and the palms facing forward. Then the hands open horizontally
to the sides, while at the same time one breathes out softly through the
mouth so the sound "hu" (as in "her") can be barely
heard. The hands again come together in front of the mouth and the described
breathing out is repeated five more times (a total of six times).
After the sixth breathing out, the hands remain horizontal
at the sides while one stands up slowly. The right foot closes next to
the left one and the arms are lowered to the sides.
