There is a special yin-yang relationship between the lungs and the hara. It is why haragei masters learn to read and act on another's breathing. The breathe contributes and controls the hara. It is important for the haragei practitioner to harmonize their own breathe to the hara. The hara is considered the origins of the blood while the lungs are the oxygenator of the blood.
Hara and Breathe provide life giving oxygen that sets the blood on fire which is very yang. The combination of hara and lungs/breathe are just one of the mutual antagonistic complementary pairs of the body per Chinese medicine, i.e. heart-small intestine; liver-gall bladder; spleen-n-pancreas-to-stomach; kidneys-bladder; lungs-large intestines.
