| Siddhaṁ - the Perfect;
Padmaṁ - the Lotus;
Tathā - likewise;
Siṁhaṁ - the lion;
Bhadraṁ - the lucky one, blessed one;
Vā - or;
Iti - these;
Catuṣṭayam - the group of four;
Śreshthaṁ - the best;
Tatra - among these;
Api - also, even;
Ca - and;
Sukhé - pleasant, comfortable;
Tiṣṭhét - one should stay;
Siddha-āsané - in the position of the perfect;
Sadā - always. |
These four are: Siddha, Padma, Sinha and Bhadra. Just one of these, the Siddhásana, is very comfortable, and one should always take this position when seated. |
