Procedure

1. Siddha asana is a seated posture. Sit on the floor on mat. ‘Bend the left leg from the knee’ by grabbing the foot by hands and put the heel just below the Sivni Nadi or perineum (between anus and genitals). By doing this, you will be in posture of sitting on the left leg’s heel.

2. Now bend the right leg, put right foot on the left in such a way that ankles of both the feet should touch each other. Right ankle should be on left ankle.

3. Now put both the hands on the keens with palms up, in Gyan Mudra (thumb and index finger touching each other, remaining three fingers straight) like padmasana.

4. Close your eyes, sit calmly and concentrate the mind as much as possible.
