Question of Asana
-
I have been using the Dragon asana as my personal asana that I had my "breakthrough" asana experience in, where one loses the intense pain and agony.
It says in the Equinox to have your toes pointed backward, and heels touching buttocks.
However, it does not state if one should have one's heels touching. I have tried both versions, and I can meditate longer with my heels not touching, bunched up and whatnot under my butt. Though, I would not like to cheat through any kind of work, especially one of Yoga.
So, are the heels supposed to touch, with feet completely side-by-side, or am I OK giving them a few inches apart?
Many thanks in advance, Fraters and Sorors.

93/93Do not bother to touch your heals.
Point is that after 30 or more minutes you should go past the pain.
Stick with it if you wish to learn to meditate well- I promise.
Take this example as an analogy. In order to achieve enlightenment you will have to have a single minded purpose to achieve this experience, to overcome all obstacles and to still single minded seek enlightenment- such as lifes sorrows, learning curves, pain, regret etc isn't learning this asana an analogy?
This will seriously improve your ability to concentrate- it will also tell your HGA you mean business.
Now learn all four asanas and learn to balance a saucer of water on your head for 30 minutes- no spilling water (the record is 90)

Is there specific measurements for the bowl and the amount of water that is suppose to be inside?
Recently, I made a bit of a game with a few of my friends...
I balance a cup with some liquid on my head,
And they have to throw a ball at it and knock it off,
While I move around, dodgingIt is quite fun

"Is there specific measurements for the bowl and the amount of water that is suppose to be inside?"
I don't know if there are any specific measurements. I think any bowl that fits is okay. As for the amount of water, it's as much as the bowl can hold without it actually overflowing.
Also, for A∴A∴ only one asana has to be mastered.
Love is the law, love under will.

93/93"93,
The "correct" way is the way that works best for you. I assure you that your Angel will not refuse to commune with you if your heels are not in the right position.

93/93That is a point well-taken, IAO. All one really needs to do besides really go over the written material, is listen for their Angel. Thank you .. I didn't know if there was some small error in the "official" pose, given in Equinox 1-1.
I'm a lil sleepy and stoned, but I forget what 131 relates directly to. I know I've read it before, but if you don't mind me asking you the meaning of the numbers in your Name?
And thanks again,

93 ThelemicMage,
There are quite a few meanings that I hold as personally important, but the ones that are fairly universal in their applicability and understandability (if that's a word) are that 131 is the enumeration for the Greek word PAN, symbolically refers to the 1-in-3 and 3-in-1 (as mentioned in the Anthem of the Gnostic Mass), and also refers to Unity (1) entering into Multiplicity (3) and returning thereto (1). Hope that's helpful.
