Before sleep In this dharana meditation the awareness is focused on the mantra of our breathing process: SO--HUM. Whenever we breathe in, a subtle sound of SO is produced and when we breathe out a subtle sound of HUM is produced. This mantra requires us to focus on these subtle sounds which is mantra of our awareness . This mantra oscillates between Manipur chakra ( navel) and Vishuddhi chakra ( throat ) and our awareness is fixed on the movement of awareness and the frequency of mantra.
