あぐら (agura)

彼かれはあぐらをかいてしゃべっていますね。

He is sitting cross-legged while talking.

日常の座法は武士、女性、茶道などでも胡座（あぐら）、立膝、で座る事が普通であった。

In everyday life, samurai, women, and even participants in tea ceremonies, typically used agura (sitting cross-legged) style or sat with one knee drawn up.

我侭三昧やっておいて「私は職責を果たしている」と言い切れるものでは無く、朝倉攻めの際の弁明は過去の功績に胡座をかいた上での驕りと断じざるを得ない。

With all Nobumori's selfish behaviors, he would not have been able to say, "I'm doing my duty," and his excuses for the attack against Asakura were nothing other than his haughtiness, resting on his past achievements.
