v2.c74.s2.97

If the image is a seated one, the six sūtras should be suspended as far as the pīṭha on which it is seated. The distance between the two knees in a figure seated with crossed legs, as in the yōgāsana posture, is equal to half the total height of the corresponding standing figure, that is 62 aṅgulas."
