•You can position the arms in Jnana Mudra (Knowledge Hand Gesture) or in Dhyana/Padma Mudra (Meditation/Lotus Hand Gesture) or Drona Mudra (Bowl Hand Gesture) as described below:

•Bend your arms at the elbows and place your hands below your navel on your lap. Keep the palms (a little cupped and with extended fingers) one on top of the other (usually, right palm on the left palm). The thumbs may either be straight or touch at the tips to form a triangle. This hand position is called Dhyana Mudra (Meditation Hand Gesture) because it is the hand posture recommended for meditation, or Padma Mudra (Lotus Hand Gesture) because it looks like the lotus petals:

•Rest your left palm on your left knee and your right palm on your right knee with the cupped palms facing downwards. Keep your arms straight at the elbows. This hand position is called Drona Mudra (Bowl Hand Gesture) because the palm is shaped like a bowl (Drona) covering your knees.

•You can remain in the Perfect Posture (Siddhasana) for a few hours; however, you must consider your fitness, age and will power.

•As a variation, instead of keeping the neck erect and looking straight ahead, you may bend the neck and look downwards with the chin touching the chest.

•And also as a variation, instead of closing your eyes, you may focus on the nose tip (Nasagra Drishti) or between the eyebrows (Bhrumadhya Drishti.)
