Akashic Revelations
Postures are said to be of two
kinds: the
Padmasana and the Vajrasana.
When one places the soles of his
feet over the two thighs
(crosswise, the right sole over the
left thigh and the left sole over
the right thigh), this becomes the
Padma posture, which destroys all
sin.
Technique
1. Place the right foot on the left thigh
2. Now place the left foot on the right thigh
