The first chapter is sealed with a prose line, and in it stands a word worth attention: nirvriti-karini, "giving peace." Nirvriti means "cessation [of turmoil], contentment, peace, delight"; from ni-vrit, "to turn back, to cease." That is, peace is understood here as the cessation of whirling — that very bhramate, "whirls," named when reading the seventy-second line.
Let us look back at the whole chapter, for it is finished. Eighty-six verses, and almost all of them craft: what to eat, how to sit, how to breathe, where to sit, how many times, with what daily increment. Its promises are mostly bodily and therefore verifiable; and where it promises beyond this, it makes its own reservations — about the teacher, the measure, weariness, the ten hindrances.
There is much honesty in it, and it deserves listing. It sets the measure by the self three times (1.12, 1.24, 1.35); it says "enough" (1.55); it warns that it is harmful to think about breathing (1.57); it names, as the first hindrance, a man blaming his own ailment on the exercise (1.58); it leaves the ninth hindrance nameless, rather than inventing a word (1.60). And this same book, reaching its end, closes not with a state and not with dissolution, but with the fact that two rejoice together (1.86).
The second chapter will change its subject: it will speak of khechari — and of the fact that for attainment, exercise alone is not enough, but a meeting is needed.
