    Commentaries around

    “We must begin to do these Bandha in some
    simple postures so our bodies can get used to them.
    The easiest posture is to lie flat on the back.
    We call this Taḍāka Mudrā when we
    do Uḍḍīyana Bandha in this position,”
    – TKV Desikachar ‘The Concept, Preparation and Techniques of Bandha’
    Religiousness in Yoga Chapter Fourteen Page 197
