Sit with your back against some support (a wall or some solid furniture), or simply sit erect. Spread your legs outward comfortably, keeping them straight, so that the back of both legs touches the floor. If you have respiratory or lower back problems, you may sit on a thin cushion, to take the pressure off the lungs and the spine respectively. Place your hands on your thighs, with the palms facing upwards. Shut your eyes, and begin meditation.

Benefits: Apart from the meditative benefits, as in the previous poses, this posture also helps tackle uro-genital problems, enhances respiratory efficiency, and prevents spinal ailments.
