Translation
"O! Neelkantha, now (I shall talk about) the beneficial granthibhedāsana; Knowing which one holds subtle breath and quickly becomes a rudra. (23.79) The practitioner (well-versed) in the mantras should sit in padmāsana (then) raising both legs take both hands (close to) to the chest through the elbows and rest them on the shoulders. (23.80) The practitioner (well-versed) in the mantras should (then) free himself from padmāsana and lower the head and bow five-hundred times holding the body firmly with the fingers; this is the well-known granthibheda āsana. Doing this one sees all the heavenly bodies. The practitioner of this āsana should dissolve the mind in the subtle breath and concentrate on parmātma. (23.81, 82)"
Steps/Technique
"1. Sit in Padmasana
2. Fold the legs onto the chest.
