The *Adipurana* states that the great beings with vajra bodies, who are established in all postures, are heard to have attained the imperishable state through the power of meditation. ||73|| Therefore, due to the abundance of weak beings, the two postures of *Kayotsarga* and *Paryanka* are described. For those who are strong enough to endure hardships, there is no fault in practicing various postures. ||74|| The posture of the body should not be an obstacle to meditation. The monks should meditate while sitting, standing, or lying down, as they are able. ||75|| Similarly, the rules regarding place and time are primarily for those with limited strength. For those with full strength, all places and all times are means for meditation. ||76|| A place free from contact with women, animals, and eunuchs, or a secluded place, is always suitable for monks. Such a place is especially suitable during meditation. ||77|| Monks who live in cities or other places full of people and constantly see objects of sense may have their minds disturbed by the abundance of sense objects.
