Akashic Revelation
One should press the heel firmly
against the perineum and place the
other foot over the genitals. He
should remain straight and steady,
control the senses, and keep the
gaze fixed between the eyebrows.
This is siddhasana, which opens the
door to liberation (moksa). 25
Technique
- Keep one heel pressing your perineum.
- Keep the other foot over genitals.
- Hands on knees.
- Sit upright and steady.
- Gaze at brows.
Note: You can sit in Vajrāsana, Padmāsana or Siddhāsana sit comfortably. Any asana is okay.
