I cannot imagine how they sit there.

I cannot sit on the floor with crossed legs. Lotus position. Never could. My legs get numb. It was my bane in the Army. When sergeant knew we are about to faint he would allow us to sit down. Only with legs folded neatly beneath us. So, I had to stand because I could not sit otherwise.
I have heard long time ago that in Japan it is an offence if you stand up from your knees or Lotus positions during tea ceremony.
