According to yogic science, there are four steps for the development and application of language. They are Sukshma (subtle) Pashyanthy (visual) Madhyama (median) and Vaikhary (word). Vital forces play important role in this up ward movement of articulation.
l)Sukshma(Subtle):- There shall be no written or spoken form for the 'idea' in this stage. Only a subtle explosion of idea or vision is taken place. The position of vital force in this state is described to be the lower part of Sushumna (spinal cord). Structures of all human languages are similar because in this level all languages are having same dynamics of development.
2) Pashyanthy (Visual):- It is described in the yogic texts that in this stage 'word' exist in luminous mind as a memory-without clarity. Gurus explain this stage of language formation in poetic language:- 'this process is similar to development of colours in the tail feathers of peacocks still growing inside the egg'. Vital force is said to have its position at navel; i.e. vital radiations at the corresponding part of spinal cord is responsible for this stage of language formation.
3)Madhyama (Median):- In this state pronunciation becomes clear but not audible. Sound exists in the inner knowledge. It is said that vital force in chest and throat is responsible for this stage of language formation.
4)Vaikhary (the word):- The word gets clear pronunciation and become audible. It is described that vital force reaches tongue and palate, at this state. Motor nerves reaching these areas are activated by the ionizing radiations coming from different parts of central nervous system.
Seers of the past ages have classified the stages of development of language formation by closely following the movement of vital force in their own body-mind, in the course of that process. Even today the ideas about language development could not reach a perfect state even though much sophisticated instruments are available for research purposes.
