Sūtra III.30

At the pit of the throat, cessation of hunger and thirst

At the pit of the throat, cessation of hunger and thirst. Below the tongue is a cord, visible when the tongue is turned up; below the cord is the throat; below the throat is the pit. From saṃyama on it, hunger and thirst do not oppress him.
