alignment for sitting meditation

[Anonymous]

maybe i missed it but what is the alignment for sitting meditation: having sat on a cushion for years, i just noticed in this sitting position my but sticks out as i look for the sit bones. it makes a very stable triangle foundation with my knees on the ground and the rest of my weight on the sit bones, however sticking the but out seems counter productive when looking at alignment for standing practice.

thanks

Hi Daniel,

here’s a video of senior instructor Paul Cavel going through the sitting meditation alignments

There is no requirement to sit cross legged for Taoist meditation.
