Mudra Therapy

Mudra Therapy

Mudrās are arm, hand and body positions used in the traditions of Hinduism and Buddhism.Hinduism shows the earliest recorded knowledge and analysis of Mudras. The earliest documentations are found in Mantra Shastra (the book of incantations), Upasana Shastra (the book of worship and prayers). Mudras benefit the mind, body, psyche and bio-magnetic fields.

Our sage has also identified area / points on hand for 07 planes and 12 signs. We can develop weakend area and reduce over strengthen malefic area by performing appropriate mudras. The hand mudras presented above are meditative mudras. They redirect the prana being emitted by the hands, back into the body.Also each finger represents a Tatva (element). Astrological signs and planets are also related with four tatvas. Thus the joining of different fingers regulates the energy of different Tatvas flowing in the body. We can balance strength of planets by hand mudras.

Thumb: Agni Tatva (Fire element)

Index Finger : Vayu Tatva (Air element)

Middle Finger : Aakaash Tatva (Ether element)
