Now I shall talk about sarpāsana that is especially good for inhaling breath. Tie both the feet with a rope and stand erect like a rod. The airy Kundali devi is shaped like a finger held in a ring form. It is adorned with ornaments etcetera. What I said is the stable sarpāsana. (23.109-110) Do this asana several times in the night by sacrificing sleep and indolence. By the help of vital breath, all obstacles such as sleep etcetera come under your control. (23.111)

Steps/Technique

1.Tie both the feet with a rope and stand upright. 2. Hands at the side of the body touching the thighs.
