MUDRAS ASSOCIATED WITH KUNDALINI


When you visit a temple & see hand MUDRAS of deity, pl. 
don't think it is imagination of sculptor, they really exist in 
human nature at higher SPIRITUAL LEVELS !! When 
KUNDALINI rises these mudras get displayed involuntarily !

IDA,PINGALA,SUSHUMNA NADIES & CHAKRAS

KUNDALINI CHAKRAS

Mudras are hand gestures that seal or lock in specific energy 
experiences and that bring forth the innate experience of bliss 
within us. Precise positions of the hands channel the universal 
energy into our being for very specific purposes. They control 
the direction of energy and encourage healing. Rich in 
symbolism,they embody and open communication with the 
archetypal energies in the universe.

A man has enormous reservoir of energy within him. Kundalini 
Shakti is one such cosmic power that lies dormant in the 
Muladhara Chakra near anus. Yogis awaken this power by 
Kundalini yoga and take it to the crown of the head by piercing 
the chakras of the sushumna, one of the important nadis. The 
other two important nadis are Ida and Pingala. Both these 
subtle astral tubes correspond to left and right of the 
sympathetic chains. Ida flows through the left nostril and gives 
a cooling effect while pingala flows through the right nostril 
and emits warmth.

Yogis tell us that moon is the presiding deity of Ida and sun is 
the presiding Deity of Pingala. That is why sometimes the left 
nostril is flowing, sometimes the right and sometimes both. 
When left flows, it is the Ida nadi that is operating. At that time 
one should perform simple and peaceful works. But when the 
right nostril is flowing, it is Pingala that operates. Then one 
should do vigorous and hard works such as exercises, eating, 
bathing, etc. Also , one should sleep during that state ,
 because Pingala digests the food quickly and bestows sound 
sleep.But when both the nostrils flow, it is Sushumna nadi that 
is operating. That is the time for the practice of meditation, 
repetition of the Lord's name, prayer and enquiry.
Sushumna, the best of all nadis, arises from the basal plexus 
and passes through the spinal column, through the subtle 
channel of the spinal cord, up to the crown of the head. All 
Chakras or mystic centres are situated in it.

This life force (kundalini Shakti or prana shakti) is the 
animating power that flows through all living things. A living 
person is filled with it; a dead person has none. It is also the 
life energy one senses in nature, in the cosmos around us . 
It is this indwelling force that manifests as the feel of a 
direction or  a pattern frozen with an instant.

All living beings have this life force (prana or kundalini Shakti) 
it is the cultivation, expansion, harnessing and use of this force 
(kundalini) is important. In yoga this done by the activating the 
subtle system of channels called nadis and centers of energy 
called chakras which look after our physical, intellectual, 
emotional and spiritual being .

When Kundalini rises MUDRAS naturally built in human

spiritual system comes into fore & gets displayed through 
hands. Kundalini gets activated when the Yogi prays in front 
of a deity, recites stotra, nama japa, concentrates in 
meditation, hears Gods Leela, miracles, supernatural powers,
etc.

Initially he is in 
PRARTHANA MUDRA(ANJALI MUDRA)
(Pic1) like any other people,within minutes his mind goes 
blank & he is as athma with hands displaying AVAHANA 
MUDRA as shown in Pic-2 in the initial stages.Tears of 
BHAKTHI flows down consistently, which may take place 
for three,four years or more.

Pic-1: PRARTHANA  MUDRA
OR ANJALI MUDRA

PIC-2: AVAHANA MUDRA
In later stages, when the Yogi starts with PRARTHANA 
MUDRA(Pic1) or meditation as in Pic4 & Pic5 with 
GYAN MUDRA / CHIN MUDRA it may end up in 
UPASAMHARA MUDRA(PIC3) using both hands or Left Hand  
with CHANDRAKALA MUDRA(PIC10/11) & RIGHT Hand 
indicating ABHAYA HASTHA.(PIC6/7)

Another MUDRA that appears at the end stage of KUNDALINI

jagrithi is SHIKARAM MUDRA which is RIGHT HAND held at
shoulder level with thumb extended upwards,other four fingers
closed-in indicating SUPREMACY.- (PIC-2A)


PIC-2A: SHIKARAM MUDRA WITH
RIGHT HAND IS MUDRA OF SUPREMACY

(NOT LEFT HAND AS IN PICTURE)
Those who are having previous birth efforts to their credit 
KUNDALINI JAGRITI takes place naturally where DIVINE 
manifestation exists & not with long drawn sadhana practice.
Anugraha of DIVINE FORCE should be on you & it takes place 
naturally ! Sadhana made in this birth may yield results in this
birth itself or in subsequent births.

OTHER ASPECTS OF MUDRAS

Benefits of Mudra Practice

It would be interesting to note the benefits of 

mudra practices--the effects that they have on

the mind, body, psyche and bio-magnetic fields
.
Below are just a few worth considering that are

directly palpable or perceptible through personal 

experience:


Health

I.Q. improvement

Empowerment of the Aura

Expansion of consciousness

Awakening of the three aspects of kundalini

Acquisition of siddhis (paranormal powers)

Transformation & regeneration of the physical body


MUDRAS CAN BE USED FOR HEALING DISEASES & 
TO REMAIN HEALTHY

FIVE FINGERS REPRESENTING FIVE ELEMENTS
The science of Mudras is based on the principle that "The root cause of disease is the imbalance and improper co-ordination between these elements and proper balance between these elements is the secret of good health." The secret of health lies in hands, fingers and Mudras, which can be performed with the help of fingers.
Human body is composed of five basic elements and the five fingers of our hands represents these five basic elements. Ancient Sages discovered the knowledge of Mudras. By touching of hands to each other or folding fingers in a particular way, we can cure any disturbances in these five elements with the help of our fingers, we can keep the five elements in proper proportion, any disturbances in them can be balanced. So that our body become healthy.
The human body, like the Universe, is made up of fusion of five elements. Body's health depends on the proper balance of these five elements in our body. Mudras help maintaining this balance. Mudras are like control buttons of chetana of our body and their proper study help us not only to control five elements but also to cure many diseases and remain healthy.
