A bandha is a special posture invented to conserve and make a greater use of vast resources of energy, generated by yogic exercises and pranayam. Bandhas should be practiced separately in the beginning, before they are incorporated into pranayam.

During yoga, the prana is made to flow in attendance through the nervous system and has help in carrying this extra energy of prana to the right organ without causing harm to any other part of the organism. Without proper channelization of prana, it proves lethal. Thus bandhas are the means of reorientation and control of pranic energy.

It is beyond any shadow of a doubt that Hath Yoga increases sex power and makes sex sacramental by elevating it to a great spiritual level and heights. The prolonged ecstasy obtained through sexo-yogic postures is to be practiced regularly. Our great ancient yogis, sages, and sheers have recommended the judicious blending of sex and yoga to experience the divine ecstasy and rapport leading to samadhi. There is no sex stimulant or aphrodisiac as efficacious and regarding as the Yogasanas. The peak experience of orgasm arising out of such a union can not be defined in words.
