baka = crane
1. Squat down from Tadasana with your inner feet a few inches apart. If it isn't possible to keep your heels on the floor, support them on a thickly folded blanket. Separate your knees wider than your hips and lean the torso forward, between the inner thighs. Stretch your arms forward, then bend your elbows, place your hands on the floor and the backs of the upper arms against the shins.
2. Snuggle your inner thighs against the sides of your torso, and your shins into your armpits, and slide the upper arms down as low onto the shins as possible. Lift up onto the balls of your feet and lean forward even more, taking the weight of your torso onto the backs of the upper arms. In Bakasana you consciously attempt to contract your front torso and round your back completely. To help yourself do this, keep your tailbone as close to your heels as possible.
3. With an exhalation, lean forward even more onto the backs of your upper arms, to the point where the balls of your feet leave the floor. Now your torso and legs are balanced on the backs of your upper arms. As a beginner at this pose, you might want to stop here, perched securely on the bent arms.
4. But if you are ready to go further, squeeze the legs against the arms, press the inner hands firmly to the floor and (with an inhalation) straighten the elbows. Seen from the side the arms are angled slightly forward relative to the floor. The inner knees should be glued to the outer arms, high up near the armpits. Keep the head in a neutral position with your eyes looking at the floor, or lift the head slightly, without compressing the back of the neck, and look forward.
5. Stay in the pose anywhere from 20 seconds to 1 minute. To release, exhale and slowly lower your feet to the floor, back into a squat.

From Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahabali 110822
Mahabali (Skt: महाबली mahābalī), also known as Māveli was a benevolent Asura King, and the grandson of Prahlada. The festival of Onam is celebrated in his honor.
UKT: Though many Hindu texts describe Asura as "devil" they are not the same as the Christian Devil and his followers. In Myanmar Theravada tradition they are the "defeated
{nût}" who were fond of intoxicating drinks and are easily defeated by
{þi.kra:} and his group of 33 deva
{dé-wa.}.
{þi.kra:} then crowned himself king and made the four daughters of the Asura king his queens. Obviously, all the deva must make obeisance to the king and his queens.
{a.þu.ra.}
-- UHS-PMD0149
UKT from UHS: m. Nat{nût} of low rank
Bali, an asura, was the son of Devamba and Virochana. He grew up under the tutelage of his grandfather, Prahlada, who instilled in him a strong sense of righteousness and devotion. [UKT¶]
My understanding of of Hindu «dhama» is 'righteousness' and 'fairness' -- not necessarily the same as the 'teaching of Buddha'. -- UKT 120104
Bali would eventually succeed his grandfather as the king of the Asuras, and his reign over the realm was characterized by peace and prosperity.
He would later expand his realm – bringing the entire world under his benevolent
rule – and was even able to conquer the
underworld and
Heaven [the
abode of
{nût} in Bur-Myan tradition], which
he wrested from Indra
[the equivalent but not the same as
{þi.kra:}]
and the
Devas. The Devas, after their defeat at the hands of Bali, approached their
patron Vishnu [sometimes described as "mahadeva" or the super-deva ]
and entreated him to restore their lordship over Heaven.
In Heaven, Bali, on the advice of his guru and advisor, Sukracharya, had begun the Ashwamedha Yaga so as to maintain his rule over the three worlds. Vishnu, meanwhile, had adopted the avatar of Vamana, a small Brahmin boy, and, during the rite, approached Bali and requested a grant of land – although only as much land as he could cover with three paces.
Despite the warnings of his advisor, Bali granted this boon. Vamana then grew to an immense size, and, with his first pace, traversed the all of the earth and the underworld. With his second pace, he covered Heaven in its entirety. Admitting defeat, and seeing that Vamana has no more room for his last step, Bali offered his own head as a stepping-stone.
Bali was thus banished to the underworld. Due to his selfless devotion and unwavering dharma, however, he was granted permission to visit his subjects once every year.
