The connection with the vital breath (prāṇa-sambandhaḥ | nom sg) [is] natural (naisargikaḥ | nom sg m).
The connection with the vital breath nevertheless remains entirely natural.
Kṣemarāja explains in the Vimarśinī: As long as embodiment continues, connection with the vital breath is natural.
The Vārttika explains: Saṃvid becomes Prāṇa through its own freedom.

Through Saṃyama on the inner centre of the nose (nāsikā-antar-madhya-saṃyamāt | abl sg): What [significance is] there here (kim atra) for the left, right, and Suṣumnā-related [channels] (savya-apasavya-sauṣumneṣu | loc pl)?
Gathering in the inner centre transcends the division of the breath into left, right, and central channels.
Kṣemarāja explains in the Vimarśinī: Through gathering in the inner centre, the question of left, right, or central channels loses its importance.
The Vārttika explains: Nāsikā here is not merely anatomical but denotes Prāṇa-Śakti in the Nāḍī system.

Again (bhūyaḥ), there should be (syāt | 3p sg act opt) reclosing [into unity] (pratimīlanam | nom sg).
In this way, every outward-moving experience closes again into recognised unity.
Kṣemarāja explains in the Vimarśinī: The conclusion leads back to inner gathering.
The Vārttika explains: The goal is not newly produced.
