Hath Yoga Pradipika • Chapter 1 • Shloka 46
अथ पद्मासनम
वामोरूपरि दक्ष्हिणं छ छरणं संस्थाप्य वामं तथा दक्ष्होरूपरि पश्छिमेन विधिना धॄत्वा कराभ्यां दॄढम |
अङ्गुष्ह्ठौ हॄदये निधाय छिबुकं नासाग्रमालोकयेत एतद्व्याधि-विनाश-कारि यमिनां पद्मासनं परोछ्यते ||
Place the right foot on the left thigh and the left foot on the right thigh, and grasp the toes with the hands crossed over the back. Press the chin against the chest and gaze on the tip of the nose. This is called the Padmâsana, the destroyer of the diseases of the Yamîs.
