6. CHAPTER VI — OTHER METHODS

ASANAS

It was usual for devotees of Bhagavan to sit crosslegged in meditation before him; but the more elaborate yogic postures or asanas were not practised. As explained in the previous chapter, such postures are less important in Self-enquiry than on a yogic path.

D.: A number of asanas are mentioned. Which of them is
the best?

B.: One-pointedness of mind is the best posture.1
