Padmasana ( Lotus Posture )

An ideal sitting posture for regular and advanced Yoga practitioners.

1. Both cross legged feet are placed over thighs.

2. The posture of legs is like leaf of a lotus, torso like stem and head like that of the flower blossoming to its exquisite.

3. The flower remains untouched to mud, though born and living on it, attributing a philosophical meaning to the Asana.

4. It takes time to be perfected in this Asana, therefore should be practiced for short but progressively increasing durations.
