Krishnamacharya's Yoga Makaranda extended stays.

"(caturanga Dandasana) ...Remain in this stithi for at least ten minutes..."


"(Urdhvamukhasvanasana)...make the effort to practice until it becomes possible to stay in this asana for fifteen minutes."

"(Ardhomukhasvanasana)... As a result of the strength of practice, one learns to hold this posture for fifteen minutes."


"(Trikonasana)... This asana must be practiced for a minimum of ten minutes. However slowly and patiently we practice this this, there is that much corresponding benefit."



"(Mayurasana)...This asana stithi should be held from 1 minute to 3 hours according to the practitioner's capability"
