Preview of English translation:

2. Now as to why it is called Antaryama. That which is the out-breathing is also the in-breathing and the through-breathing. Now, in drawing the Upamshu (graha), he puts into him that out-breathing which tends away from him; and in drawing the Antaryama, he puts into him that in-breathing which tends towards him. But this same in-breathing is confined within his self; and because it is confined (yam) within (antar) his self, or because these creatures are sustained (yam) by it, therefore it is called Antaryama.
