Breath infusion this morning lasted for 65 minutes. The subtle body was not infused as quickly as on some other mornings, when the same amount of energy would be put into it in say about 40 minutes.
About ten minutes before the session was over Srila Yogeshwarananda was present. He showed me a sitting posture used by some yogis when they are doing pranayama practice for 2 hours before going into samadhi. These are research samadhis to search for, discover or be transited into higher levels of consciousness and also higher dimensional environments.
This particular posture is used after doing the tight lotus posture, padmasana. After that posture was used during breath infusion and it causes cut off of circulations, there are some related lotus postures and semi-lotus postures which are used. This one in particular is used by yogis who have reformed the reproductive system and the evacuation process. The heel of one foot is put under the body and the yogi sits on that heel, while the other foot is folded up on the thigh just as it would be in lotus.
This posture is balanced and the spine assumes a fully upright posture when this posture is assumed. When breath infusion is done in this posture, the energy has a tendency to course down and up on the inside of the trunk of the body near the trunk. This creates a charge condition there which attracts kundalini.
See the way the stomach and pubic areas are pulled up and back. This lock is applied immediately after doing some rapid breathing and then stopping on an exhale. The infused energy is clamped down so that it moves into the spine from the bottom up.
Look at it as gas in a balloon which is pumped in. The gas is then compressed in a particular corner of the balloon:
In the posture below one leg is unwrapped from the lotus posture, the other leg remains on a thigh. The released leg is under the body centralized.
See this same posture from the back:
