Brahma - Vishnu - Shiva.

The three Hindu Gods of - Creation - Preservation - Destruction can be viewed as a representation of;

1. The Inhale, the entering and creation of each new moment.

2. Breath retention, the preserving of a moment.

3. The exhale, the death and letting go of each moment.

We breathe all day and night but we rarely think about or are aware of this fact for much of the time.
Once we activate consciousness to our breathing we are in effect 'doing' Pranayama.
We then breathe with more awareness and enter each moment with full consciousness and responsibility, we hold the breath and extend the moment, we suspend time in a sense and then finally we let it go.

We do this for the whole of our life. We enter the World with an inhale and we leave it with an exhale, (usually).
