Kaya Sthairyam Steadiness of the Body
Kaya sthairyam is the first practice of the dharana series.
It is a basic practice of concentration on the steadiness of the body.
In Sanskrit the word kaya means 'body' and sthairyam means 'steadiness'. Because of the interrelation
between the body and the mind, when the body becomes steady and still the mind follows suit. Therefore,
each of the dharana practices should begin with five to ten minutes of kaya sthairyam. Only when the body
is absolutely steadyand immobile should the actual dharana practice begin.
It is also important to note that the mind remains onepointed only while the body is still. As soon as any
part of the body moves, the mind also moves. Thus the concentration is broken and once broken it cannot
be attained again in the same sitting. During pratyahara practices you can move the body, you can shift
your position you can even get up and then come back to the practice. In dharana, however, you cannot
move a finger, you cannot bat an eyelid, you cannot even swallow without breaking the concentration.
Before attempting the following practices of dharana, kaya sthairyam must first be mastered. You should
be able to sit without moving any part of the body for at least half an hour , then you will be ready to
begin the practices of dharana. In the initial stage of kaya sthairyam, the body should be comfortable and
relaxed in the meditation posture. Later on, as immobility develops, the physical awareness will gradually
subside as awareness of stillness increases. At this time the concentration is shifted from the body to the natural
breath, so that the mind still has a focus. Ultimately, the awareness of the breath will also subside so that there
is only awareness. At that time you are ready to begin dharana.
With that awareness which is steady and still and unhampered by the body, you must begin to concentrate on
the object of meditation. If dharana is attempted with an unsteady body and fluctuating mind, no benefits will
result from the practice even if you perform it for a hundred years. The only results will be tension, frustration
and a broken mind. Therefore, give your attention to the preparatory practices in the beginning. Master kaya
sthairyam, then you will be able to proceed with the practices of dharana without any obstacle.

Technique
Stage I: Preparation
Sit in a comfortable meditation posture, preferably siddhasana or padmasana. Adjust your position so
that you do not have to move any part of the body during the practice. Make sure the spine is erect.
Head, neck and shoulders should be slightly back. Place your hands on the knees in chin or jnana mudra.
Close your eyes. Become aware of slow deep breathing and count five breaths mentally.
Stage 2:-Body posture
Switch your awareness to the body. Concentrate on your meditation posture. Feel your spine rising
straight up from the floor, supporting the head. Be aware of the synchronized and balanced position of
the arms and legs. Total awareness of the body.
Stage 3: Visualization of body
Visualize your body extemally as if you were seeing it in a fulllength mirror. See your body in the
meditation posture from the front, from the back, from the right side, from the left side, from the top.
See your body from all sides at one time.
Stage 4: Body tree
Be aware of your whole body. Feel that you are rooted to the floor. Imagine that your body is growing up
from the floor like a tree. Your torso is the trunk, your arms and head are the branches, and your legs
are the roots. Your body is rooted to the floor and it will not move.
Stage 5: Sensations in the body
Be aware of any physical sensations: cold, heat, wind, itching, pain, uneasiness, tension, stiffness.
Direct your awareness to these feelings. Let them be a focus for your mind. If your mind starts to
wander, bring it back to the sensations in the body.
Stage 6: Body parts
Direct your awareness to the head. Be aware of the head and nothing else. Feel any sensation in the
head. Visualize the head. Shift your awareness to the neck. Feel any sensations in the neck. Continue to
be aware. Following the same process, move your awareness to the shoulders, to the right arm, the left
arm, the whole of the back, the chest, the abdomen, the right leg, the left leg, and finally the whole
body. Be aware of the whole body together. Intensify your awareness of the body. Do another round
maintaining full awareness.
Stage 7: Immobility of the body
Make a resolve that, "I will not move my body throughout the whole practice. My body will not move or
shake. I will remain steady and motionless like a statue." Even if you feel an impulse to move a finger or
toe, to adjust your clothing, or to scratch, try to overcome this urge. When you feel the urge to move
you must say to yourself "No, I will not move any part of my body until the end of the practice."
Stage 8: Steadiness and stillness
Be aware of your physical body, of your meditation posture and of nothing else. There should be total
uninterrupted awareness of the whole body. The body is perfecdy steady and motionless. Develop the
feeling of steadiness. Be aware of your body and stilIness. Your body is absolutely steady and still.
Be aware of steadiness. Be aware of your physical body. There is no movement, no discomfort,
olllly steadiness and stilIness.
Stage 9: Psychic rigidity
Feel the steadiness and stillness of the body. GradualIy your body will become rigid and stiff like a
statue, as though all the muscles have frozen. The body should become so stiff that you are unable
to move any part, even ifyou try. Total awareness ofthe body, ofimmobility, of psychic rigidity.
Feel the locked position of the body. Be aware of the body and of stillness.
