MUDRA CONCEPT


A Mudra (Sanskrit मुद्रा, "seal", "mark", or "gesture") is a symbolic or ritual gesture in Hinduism and Buddhism.While some mudras involve the entire body, most are performed with the hands and fingers.A mudrā is a spiritual gesture and an energetic seal of authenticity employed in the iconography and spiritual practice of Indian religions.

One hundred and eight mudras are used in regular Tantric rituals.

In yoga, mudras are used in conjunction with pranayama (yogic breathing exercises), generally while seated in Padmasana, Sukhasana or Vajrasana pose, to stimulate different parts of the body involved with breathing and to affect the flow of prana in the body.

Mudras & the Panch Bhoota:

The physical body is made up of five elements namely – Air, Water, Fire, Earth and Aakash (ether – the tiny intercellular spaces in the human body).
Imbalance of these elements disrupts the immunity system and is the root cause of all human disease(s).

Deficiency in any of these elements can be corrected, through Mudras.
When a finger representing an element is brought into contact with the thumb, that element is brought into balance. Therefore the disease caused by the imbalance is cured. Mudras invoke electromagnetic currents within the body which balance various constituting elements and restore health. The joining of fingers, brings forth a subtle, yet positive  effect upon the human body.




Ancient sages have designated the five fingers for these five elements viz.,

* Thumb      Fire
* Index        Air
* Middle      Aakash
* Ring         Earth
* Little        Water

There is a direct relationship between the hands and the neck since the nerve paths run through the vertebral form in the arms, hands, and fingers. The flexibility of the hands always has an effect on the flexibility of the neck. Therefore, hand exercises relieve tensions in the neck. Moreover, spreading the ten fingers creates a reflex that causes the chest vertebrae to spread out.

The hands and fingers also have an additional direct relationship to the heart and lungs. You would have observed many people can no longer properly stretch their fingers as they get older. This shows tension in the heart area, which often is an indication of some , heart disease or a tendency toward osteoporosis. This slightly crooked hand position also impedes inhalation. The result is that the optimum amount of air is not drawn into the lungs, especially into the lung borders, which promotes contamination in those areas.

In the picture below, you can find the palm of a person who suffered from Heart attack. His palm was perfectly normal before the attack. Unfortunately, i do not have the picture taken before the attack. He is a real survivor of multiple attacks. He is a very sincere person following healthy diets. I would say, besides the allopathy medicines which is absolutely mandatory for him, his sincere following of Mudras ( some he is ofcourse unable to keep, due to his hand disability) , acupressure and his wonderful Name Number 51/6 which is acting as a Sanjeevani for him. Also, dont miss out , to observe his long Life line , all the way supported by the energetic Mars Line and the clear Fate line, running well above the Heart line.

DISFIGURED PALM DUE TO HEART ISSUES
Reflex Zones

The hand reflex zones correspond to the foot reflex zones, the massage treatment of which is generally known today. Since some of the organs are only found on one side of the body such as the heart and liver, this is reflected in the hands. Since hands come in different sizes, you may not find the exact pressure point immediately. When you have found the desired point, massage it with your thumb, using light pressure and slow, circular movements. One to 3 minutes are enough.

Mudras are sacred ritual gestures or hand positions. When used in religious dance they become an elaborate hand language. The Sanskrit word Mudra means seal. In the most ancient times mudra was used with mantra and sealed the pattern of energy. The earliest mudra was the Sanskrit symbol. From this primordial system of mudra grew a secret language that became as diverse as the country it was practiced in. Mudra is likewise used for the purpose of prayer.

Mudras create an energy field and can be used in healing. The ultimate goal of mudra is a higher state of consciousness.

PALMISTRY - SOME MISCONCEPTIONS !

Aim of this article is to emphasize the following MOOL MANTRA . Mool Mantra:  Before coming to a conclusion, regarding a query, always chant this! Always , make interpretation about a palm,  as a whole, and do not come to a conclusion, by a single sign or feature. A negative symbol, perhaps, is modified, by a positive feature in some other place. Never come to a conclusion, on impulse. Patience is a virtue, more so to a Palm reader! Misconception 1: A short life line , implies, that you are going to die young. Reality:  Many octogenarians*  have short Life Line , but still they continue to live past age 80. Following is the palm of a lady who is in her mid seventies. Fig.1 fig.1 Meaning: Life Line alone does not decide your longevity. A defective (short/ broken/islanded) Life Line probably  indicates a major change in your life OR some bothering painful domestic issues.                                                 *********************** 

APANA VAYU MUDRA

    ANGULI MUDRA FOR HEART ATTACK- an article from a Palmist table.   Recent days , I have been receiving news from relatives, near and dear , of many cases being hospitalized, due to heart attack. The bothering issue, is that ,all were between the ages of 45 to 55, prime time of Ones’s Life, when your presence in the family is of utmost importance and many important duties, yet unfinished. For most of these cases I had already suggested, either the Life energy increasing Mudra , that is - the Praana Mudra or the Mudra for the heart. But , I observe, people tend to take these suggestions lightly. Rather , they are comfortable with other remedies, such as Name change, Signature change or more easier is wearing gemstones. They think, once you wear the gemstones, it will do magic. It is not so.                Unless the Self changes from inside- by lifestyle modification, with good habits, healthy diets, good deeds, the external changes – like wearing lucky gemstones, using lu

SIMIAN LINE

Here i have tried to register information collected from various websites, books and my own experience. A common thing i have found in people with Simian are , they are different in some way, from the remaining crowd, though, you may not be able to spot it during your first meeting. **   DIFFERENT VARIATIONS OF SIMIAN LINES First, try to identify, if the supposed line under discussion is present in the place of Heart line, Head line or in between. Because, if present in the heart line s position, it takes more of Heart lines characteristics. If in the place of Head line it takes more of Head lines characteristic.If  in between it has strong simian characteristics. ** Secondly, the line itself, may be fully Simian or partially Simian. Fully, meaning, a straight line running across the palm with little or no Heart line as in fig3. In fig1 &2 they are partially simian, with the Heartline appearing to merge with the headline below it. ** Not every featur
