Good one, Kyman!

"A picture is worth 1000 words" -- as in lesson 108, and quite a few words since.

The guru is in you.

Very nice, Kyman. I am far from there yet, but it will be exceptionally useful for non-native speaker to understand where precisely you guys mean[:)]

By the way, may I take this opportunity to ask if anyone have a reference picture on the path we should trace during spinal breathing? Without a picture, in the first few months I actually did it wrong (I went around the top of the head before reaching the third eye). I corrected it several months ago. But I want to make sure I'm really doing this important practice correctly.

The position of the third eye, for example, is described differently in different texts. In spinal breathing, should I reach the surface between the eyeblows?

A side-view picture would be most helpful.

Alvin, when youa are in the book store, check the yoga books relating to energy/prana/chi.  Often they have wonderful illustrations of the inner body.

You are like me, you see the image in a book and suddenly the same area becomes active in the body.  It's fun to read about yoga because as I read I feel it coming alive inside.  To study is to meditate!

My septum feels like a funny shape?

I would imagine this structure is not uniform.  Anyone else have the same experience of asymetry?

You may have a mildly-deviated septum.  Check out this article:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deviated_septum

It is common for nasal septums to depart from the exact centerline; the septum is only considered deviated if the shift is substantial or is adversely affecting the patient. Many people with a deviation are unaware they have it until some discomfort is produced. But by itself a deviated septum can go for years without being detected and thus be without any real need for correction.

Thanks David. This morning after Shamyama.. this is the exact thought that came into my head and I thought I should tell Kyman.. but then I forgot.. heh heh heh.. getting old...[:D]
Kyman in this thread http://www.aypsite.com/plus-forum/index.php?topic=1395 you said "My nostrils seem to be closed a good bit of the time."
This may be a sign of deviated septum.. a couple of my friends have/had  it.. and one had surgery to fix it. If you have trouble breathing, you may want to get it checked out by a doc..
