Padmasana is one of those postures that look easy until you actually try it. When I began practicing yoga, vinyasa classes would often begin and end in this position, or a comfortable seat. Except it wasn't actually comfortable for me to sit on the floor because of tight hips and legs from biking everywhere. I was placing tension on the knees and forcing the rotation in them to take this silly shape called padmasana.
After careful study and patience I learned how to access my hips in order to properly take this shape without stressing my knees. In this video is the exact homework I did every day outside of my normal asana practice to achieve mobility in my hips and save my knees.
