Meaning βSealβ, ΚΌMarkβ or βGestureβ in Sanskrit are said to intensify the Effects of our Yoga or Meditation practice, and Enhance the Flow of Energy β‘.
The specific origins of Mudras are unknown although theyβve been around for thousands of years, appearing in varying religions and traditions including Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity, Egyptian Hieroglyphics, Tantric rituals, Roman art, Asian Martial arts, Taoism, Indian Classical dance, even found in organizations such as Freemasons, and more.
While some Mudras involve the entire Body, most are Performed with the Hands and Fingers.
The purpose of these hand gestures varies according to tradition, from focusing Subtle Energy, transmitting teaching through symbols, Acting as a tool for Healing illness, even attributing Magical Powers or Psychic Abilities to the Practitioner.
In Yoga and Meditation many uses Mudras alongside Pranayama (Yoga Breathing exercises), usually when seated cross-legged in Sukhasana, Virasana or Padmasana.
Mudras are also incorporated into the Physical practice of Yoga Asana.
Performing Mudras have been said to stimulate the Flow of Prana (Life Force or Energy β‘) throughout the Body, and to Quieten the Mind by focusing it on the simple touch of our Hands or Fingers and to Intensify the Power of our practice.
According to Ayurveda, disease is the result of an Imbalance in our Body caused by a Deficiency or an Excess one of the Five Key Elements: Ether, Air, Fire, Water and Earth.
Each of these is said to Play a specific Role within the Body and are represented by the Five Fingers:
The Thumb β Fire
The Forefinger β Wind
The Middle Finger β Ether (or Space)
The Ring Finger β Earth
The Little Finger β Water
The Fingers in essence Act as electrical circuits and the use of Mudras adjust the Flow of Energy which Balance these Elements, accentuating Healing.

The Sacred geometry of Nature presented to you in an autumnal, festive video - alongside Truesathru's Celtic 432 Hz cinematic music.
I feel like this piece requires some explanation. This piece was done for an assignment calledΒ βWhatβs on your mindβ and at the suggestion of a friend I decided to do my piece about my experience as a skeptic of religion. I want to be absolutely clear that this piece is not meant to be an insult to any religion symbolized here. In fact, it is a self-deprication of my inability to understand religion. The geometric halo represents my rigid black-and-white (true or false) way of thinking. Even as IΒ βdissectβ various belief systems, I have trouble grasping fundamental concepts, such asΒ βfaithβ. I also noticed during the process of making this piece that openly skeptical views are far more likely to draw dirty looks and the like than mainstream religious views. Somehow, that makes this piece even more important to me.
Thank you for your understanding.
