The tri-union flame is visible at the spot of meditation and that light is visible at the spot of meditation, the Sadhaka shall leave his Prana performing Thokkar Kriya as directed by Sri Gurudeva. This is the period of six months. When becoming one with Brahman, there is no return.
Verily, this is called Uttaraayana (Ut + Tar + Ayan). There is no other higher destiny than this.
- Swami Pranabananda from Pranab Gita, 8:24, English translation, Yoga Niketan

The Vision [Darshan] of Kutastha is also a Kriya - it is He whom yogis worship - Omkar Kriya - the oblation of yajna by yajna itself (Thokar with sealed breath).*
