Krishna said
शुचौ देशे प्रतिष्ठाप्य स्थिरमासनमात्मनः।नात्युच्छ्रितं नातिनीचं चैलाजिनकुशोत्तरम् ॥6.11॥

śucau deśe pratiṣṭhāpya sthiramāsanamātmanaḥnātyucchritaṃ nātinīcaṃ cailājinakuśottaram

Meaning

In a clean place, one should set up a firm seat for oneself, neither too high nor too low, covered with kusha grass, a deerskin and a cloth, one over the other.

हिंदी में अर्थ

किसी साफ़-सुथरे स्थान पर अपने लिए एक स्थिर आसन बिछाना चाहिए, जो न बहुत ऊँचा हो न बहुत नीचा, और जिस पर कुशा घास, मृगचर्म और कपड़ा एक के ऊपर एक बिछे हों।

Practise it today

Clean and set aside one small spot at home today, with a mat or cushion, just for sitting quietly. Keep it tidy and free of clutter.

Reflect tonight

Did you create a quiet spot today? How did it feel to sit in a place prepared with care?
