Then Pranayama : Inhaling: Internal Retention: Exhaling: External Retention should be done/practiced in the ratio 12:48:24:24 minimum so as to reach breathless state which will immediately lead to thoughtless/No Mind stage which is deep meditation. Try to maintain that state as long as possible. Occasionally deep breathing can be done. But immediately resume to that Kevala Kumbaka state of external retention of breath. We can easily reach stillness/void state of Self Awareness.
The above technique is the one I follow successfully and could be able to reach no mind state which will bring profound peace and blissfull shivering all over the body.
