I removed it, and apparently that did the trick. And you're welcome for the information. It's a pleasure to share.

is “dhyana mudra” defined in some earlier section that i haven’t looked at yet? and if it’s a hand position, why is it not defined in the “hands” section?

thanks.

While it's traditional to have the right hand on top of the left, not everyone does this all the time. In fact when I'm very tired I sometimes sit with the left hand on top because the difference is enough to be gently stimulating. Also, the photograph may have gotten reversed at some point! All the best, Bodhipaksa HI Terence,

Well spotted! While it’s traditional to have the right hand on top of the left, not everyone does this all the time. In fact when I’m very tired I sometimes sit with the left hand on top because the difference is enough to be gently stimulating.
