在此詩節中，主（Lord）規定了修習冥想的外在坐墊。姿勢的細節在第13節中給出。首先在地上鋪上庫沙草，其上鋪虎皮或鹿皮，再其上鋪白布。應坐在自然潔淨的地方，如河岸，或者在任何你希望修習冥想的地方，將其打掃乾淨。

Over this spread a tigerskin or deerskin over this spread a white cloth.Sit on a naturally clean spot? such as the bank of a river. Or? make the place clean? wherever you want to practise meditation.
