Verse 82āsane śayane sthitvā nirādhāraṃ vibhāvayan ।
sva-dehaṃ manasi kṣīṇe kṣaṇāt kṣīṇāśayo bhavet ॥Situating oneself on a seat or a couch[, sitting or lying], imagine your body is without support (i.e., it is floating in space): when the mind dissolves, you may suddenly become free of any substrate or support.
Planning note: For this practice you need to be in a very comfortable posture, in a chair, sofa, lying down, or sitting on a comfortable meditation cushion. You should be able to completely relax every part of your body.
