ASANAS FOR MEDITATION

Swami Sivananda

It is the best Asan for contemplation. Rishis like Gheranda, Sandilya and others speak very highly of this vital Asan. It is suitable for householders, men and women. These four Asans, viz., Padmasan, Siddhasan, Swastikasan and Sukhasan, are practised for Japa and meditation. In your meditation room, in front of the picture of your Ishta Devata or Guru, spread a Kusa seat (seat made of Kusa grass) and over this a deer or tiger skin. You can spread a piece of cotton cloth on this deer or tiger skin and then sit for meditation. Or spread on the ground va four folded blanket and over this a cloth. This also will serve you well.

Lead a life of purity and simplicity. Divine Life rests upon the purity of mind and simplicity
in life. Take the Lord’s Name always. Feel His Divine Presence wherever you go. God is
everywhere. There is no place where He is not

ASANAS FOR MEDITATION

Swami Sivananda

When you sit for meditation in the Asan, close your eyes and gently concentrate on Trikuti (the space between the two eyebrows). Tip of the nose, and Anahata Chakra (the lotus of the heart) are other places for concentration. Padmasan is one of the most important poses. When this is demonstrated, it gives the appearance of a lotus. In Sanskrit Padma means lotus. The two feet on the opposite thighs represent the petals of a lotus. Amongst the four poses prescribed for meditation, Padmasan comes foremost. ,

Even one little thought of God, even one single utterance of His sacred name, even for few seconds of visualizing His form immediately goes into your credit in the eternal bank.
