Pose implies an artistic, aesthetic, athletic, or spiritual intention of the position. Attitude refers to postures assumed for purpose of imitation, intentional or not, as well as in some standard collocations in reference to some distinguished types of posture: "Freud never assumed a fencer's attitude, yet almost all took him for a swordsman." [2]
The crossed legs are said to look like a cow's mouth, while the bent elbows supposedly look like a cow's ears. [1] The pose is ancient as it is described in the Darshana Upanishad (3.3–4), written around the 4th century. [4] [5] For instance, it is listed and described within the 84 asanas in the 17th-century Haṭha Ratnāvalī (3.7–20).
A single asana is listed for each main pose, whether or not there are variations. Thus for Sirsasana (Yoga headstand), only one pose is illustrated, although the pose can be varied by moving the legs apart sideways or front-and-back, by lowering one leg to the floor, by folding the legs into lotus posture, by turning the hips to one side, by placing the hands differently on the ground, and so on.
Cowpox is an infectious disease caused by the cowpox virus (CPXV). [2] It presents with large blisters in the skin, a fever and swollen glands, historically typically following contact with an infected cow, though in the last several decades more often (though overall rarely) from infected cats. [3]
In cow-hocked horses, the hind hocks are too close together and point toward each other, with the feet too widely apart. It is a fairly common defect, and if the metatarsal bones are vertical, may not always cause lameness. A combination of cow- and sickle-hocks poses a greater risk. [1]
Baddha Konasana. Baddha Konasana (Sanskrit: बद्धकोणासन; IAST: baddhakoṇāsana), Bound Angle Pose, [1] Butterfly Pose, [2] or Cobbler's Pose (after the typical sitting position of Indian cobblers when they work), [3] and historically called Bhadrasana, [4] Throne Pose, [4] is a seated asana in hatha yoga and modern yoga as exercise.
