Each person in this world is special, and is a creative conductor and concentrator of various energies of the Universe. The quality and nature of these energy flows depends on the purity and harmony of a given individual. Correct use Mudra yoga of gestures teaches us how to control energy flows.
Mudra, translated from Sanskrit, means “giving joy”, another translation option is “seal”, “gesture”, lock, closure; in Hinduism and Buddhism - symbolic, ritual placement of the hands, ritual sign language.
Mudras are an eastern practice that distributes cosmic bioenergy through subtle channels in and around the human body. In other words, this is a kind of gymnastics - hand yoga, which allows you to control energies, or exercises to influence bio-points and energy channels of the fingers. And if it’s very simple, then mudras are powerful way influence on oneself, thanks to which one can gain inner peace and health. This is one of the most proven, centuries-tested methods of self-improvement that can be practiced anytime, anywhere.
Mudras came from the depths of thousands of years. Hindus believe that these movements were conveyed to people through his dance by Shiva, one of the three supreme gods of the Hindu pantheon - he is called “He who creates the world with the power of cosmic dance.” Ritual gestures - mudras - were used in temple dances. From Hinduism, mudras came to Buddhism. Nine major mudras, called Buddha mudras, were used to represent different stages of meditation. Then mudras became one of the elements of Buddhist iconography - each position of the hands in the image of the Buddha carried certain symbolism.
Many of these movements are universal, because hands are a tool for interacting with the world, and gestures are one of the ways nonverbal communication. Hands serve as a conductor of a powerful flow of energy, so any movement of the hand causes a change electromagnetic field around the body. Skillful use of this practice helps to heal oneself and other people, balance masculine and feminine energy, gain inner strength And peace of mind, eliminate chronic fatigue and feelings of anxiety, significantly improve emotional condition a person, get rid of fear and anger, alleviates and cures many diseases, and has a beneficial effect on the entire human body.
(Attention! There are some peculiarities in the description of meaning and usage in Indian and Chinese methods mudra yoga. This is due to the peculiarity of the perception of multidimensional reality among Indians and Chinese. There is no error, you can use the understanding of both systems together.
The process of performing any mudra must be conscious, that is, strive to see and feel your multidimensionality, the energies of your aura, the vibrations of your karmic activity, your soul-atma. Then execution will be orders of magnitude more efficient and faster than with the “dumb” approach.)
