Ordinarily prana ganga flows downwards, from sahasrara to muladhara. When the mind disengages from 'vishaya' (sense objects), the prana is now ready to be uplifted back to the source. This source is 'gangotri'. 'Ganga' means the life-force (prana). Tri is the junction point at the ajna chakra. So Gangotri is the junction point from where prana ganga emanates. Retracing the prana ganga back to its source, the Gangotri , is termed as 'vakri gati' or simply 'Retrograde Phenomena' in Jyotisha. This 'pratyahara' is indeed a great blessing. Retrogression also means a deep desire to go back where one came from - Gangotri!
