Mudras of health, love, money and fulfillment of desires
Mudra is a magical intricacy of fingers, a unique “language” of communication with the Universe. The first mudras appeared several 1000 years BC. and to this day no one knows who created them. Some legends say that the authors of the mudras are Hindu gods, others claim that the mysterious position of the fingers was seen by great priests. Be that as it may, their effect on human life is still not fully understood. However, before those who fold the mudras, it opens the whole world! After all, with their help you can not only heal and get rich, but also fulfill your most cherished desires!
Purification before mudras
If you want mudra to become a real salvation for you and give excellent results, you must first carry out cleansing and normalize the water balance of your body. For 2 weeks before you start folding mudra, follow the following water consumption regimen:
- 1 glass of water immediately after waking up
- 1 glass of water half an hour before breakfast
- 1 glass of water an hour before lunch. After eating, do not drink or eat for 2.5 hours. After the time is up, drink 1 more glass of water
- 1 glass of water instead of an afternoon snack
- 1 glass of water an hour before dinner (the last meal should be 2.5-3 hours before)
- 1 glass of water before bed.
How to perform mudras correctly
The uniqueness of mudras lies in the fact that you can work with them anywhere, and they do not require special physical training. You can do them while sitting on the bus or on the couch in front of the TV. But the greatest effect can be achieved if you fold mudras, combining them with meditation while standing, sitting or, for example, in the well-known lotus position, facing east. It is important to keep your spine straight and at the same time keep your back relaxed. Breathing is chesty and calm.
Make sure that there are no rings, watches or bracelets on your hands while working with mudra. You can work with several mudras at once, but I do not recommend spreading yourself too thin. Two or three mudras will be enough.
After you finish your work, do not make sudden movements: stretch your neck, rub one palm against the other, and then clench each into a fist. Stretch and take a couple of deep breaths.

Introduction
Most people are accustomed to clearly distinguish between the scientific approach and the so-called “Magic”, believing that these are two mutually exclusive concepts. In fact, the line between them is very thin and, as a rule, passes only in the minds of ordinary people. After all, if you think about it, for a person who lived some hundred years ago, modern gadgets will seem like something beyond cosmic or even divine. What can we say about earlier periods?
But there is also ancient knowledge and practices that are perceived by pragmatists as something absurd and are equated by them to myths and fairy tales. Modern medicine has undoubtedly made huge strides forward in the study and treatment of various diseases. But despite all these efforts, there are still many incurable and fatal pathologies. Likewise, science cannot explain some phenomena from the point of view of generally accepted physical laws and rules, limiting itself only to recording a “miracle” or “anomaly”.
Inertia in the study of the universe is absolutely unacceptable. If you hold on to the dogmas that were once derived and do not include critical thinking or imagination (as the greatest scientists did), then there can be no talk of any scientific breakthroughs in the near future. Moreover, even human nature remains one of the biggest mysteries for science...
But there is already progress in this direction. Recognition of the fact that man is not only an exclusively physical, but also an energetic being provides enormous potential for studying the issue of human interaction with nature and matter as such.
What are Mudras?
If we proceed from the fact that a person is simultaneously a source, receiver and relay of multiple energy flows, then the most important question arises: how to control these flows? Due to the fact that such research is practically not conducted at the official level, such information cannot be found in any textbook. But, fortunately, the ancient people of knowledge did not engage in painful searches for truth, but simply worked with it, observing and feeling the primordial power in themselves and in the surrounding space. They developed special combinations of gestures and positions that were designed to redirect, focus, close or disperse energy throughout the body. With this they achieved the most incredible results: from curing a runny nose to changing their social status and welfare. Such combinations were called "Mudras".
How does this work?
Man, at his core, is a very powerful generator of “intention.” Those. its nature contains a very large potential for change (in any direction) not only own life, but also the lives of the people around him and even the space. The main religions teach that man took and is directly involved in the formation of the reality he observes (“co-creator”, “...in the image and likeness...”, “the road under the feet of the one who walks”, etc.). Therefore, almost everything that happened, is happening and will happen to people is in the area of their direct responsibility. Without references to “evil fate” and “unlucky fate”. People themselves are the creators of their own happiness and unhappiness. Everyone is in the same conditions: on the same planet, under the same sun. There may be many objections about economic, physical and political inequalities, but this is all socially superficial and does not change the essence of the matter. Everyone can change their life. Any moment. This is very difficult to accept, but it is true.
A harmonious person who is in harmony with himself and with the world is energetically full by default. This means that its energy circuits are functioning correctly and the energy quality itself is at a high level. This state is achieved through careful work on oneself. Many articles have been written about this, so here it makes sense to dwell only on the concept of “Energy circuit”.
It's very simple. By analogy with circulatory system one can imagine that energy circulates within the body, nourishing various organs. This, of course, is a very crude and superficial approach, but the meaning is something like this. The spiritual and physical state of a person depends on the quality and quantity of energy.
A striking example of mudra is the sign of the cross among Christians. The symbolism of this action is interpreted in different ways, but this gesture is much more ancient than the Christian religion. In fact, the energy flow is concentrated at the tips of the three fingers and distributed among the most important energy centers. A positive effect is also achieved due to the fact that a person, making the sign of the cross, usually “tunes in” to the spiritual wave and tries to reject everything negative from himself. The right positive attitude is very important point. Nothing will work without him.
Practical application of mudra that fulfills wishes
Anyone can learn basic skills in this area. The choice of mudra is made depending on what exactly a person needs.
One of the most common mudras is the wish fulfillment mudra or “Kubera”. She is very powerful. With her correct use You can achieve what you want in a relatively short period of time. It is necessary to make a reservation that functionally this mudra does not have any magical properties and that if a person performs it regularly, then the desired item will not appear on his table one day by itself. Rather, it sets a person up for the right thoughts and actions that he must apply to achieve what he wants.
The mudra of wish fulfillment is performed with both hands as follows:
Rest your ring and little fingers in your palms
Thumbs, index and middle fingers are gathered into pinch

When performing mudras, be guided by the pictures. Don’t strain your hands, and keep your fingers touching lightly. Some mudras may be difficult for you. Your fingers will have difficulty moving in the right direction, slip, and get tired quickly. This is due to stiffness of the joints and the whole body as a whole. In this case, our recommendations and mudras will benefit you and help improve the condition of your body.

Remember that mudras are not just exercises or gestures, they are endowed with sacred meaning.
If, when performing mudras, you cannot concentrate on the main thought, then switch your attention to your breathing. Watch your inhalation and exhalation. This will help you calm down and then move on to important thoughts. Next, you can begin to visualize (imagine your goal - a desired object, a relaxing landscape, a healthy organ) and affirmations (positive phrases-suggestions that help you achieve your goal).
Don't do all the mudras in a row. Choose from them those that you really need at this stage of your life. Remember that the effect will not appear immediately. Sometimes it may seem that mudras are of no benefit and everything is only getting worse, but this is not so. Every change in the body, in life, can be accompanied by side processes and short-term exacerbations of chronic diseases or worsening of the situation. Change is a disruption of stability, but it helps to come to a new, more acceptable or beneficial situation for you. Therefore, you just need to go through the initial period of change and do it as calmly as possible. Continue practicing mudras and gradually you will achieve your goal. Don't be afraid to adjust it. Perhaps, if the previous stability is disrupted, you will realize that you were striving for the wrong thing and will set yourself a more correct, more realistic, more beneficial goal for you. Continue your studies, and changes for the better will definitely happen.
If while performing mudras you notice a deterioration in your health, then stop practicing. Perhaps your goal is not well thought out and you have chosen the wrong mudras. It is especially worth thinking about this if there are complaints from previously undisturbed organs or parts of the body. The conditions for performing the mudras that we recommend allow you to listen to your body as much as possible and notice all the changes that happen to it.
If you are filled with negative thoughts and irritated, then you should not start the lesson. First, calm down, use breathing techniques (full yoga breathing works very well).
Believers can read a prayer before the mudras and turn to the Lord. After the lesson, you should thank him for all the good things in your life.
When performing gyan mudra, concentrate your attention on the joined fingers. At the same time, think about something pleasant and sublime. This will allow you to find inner freedom and tune in to perform subsequent mudras. You will be able to feel the flow of energy coming from your index finger. To get the most out of this mindset, try thinking about something unpleasant while also capturing the energy in the area of your index finger. You may notice a difference in sensation. In this way, you will see how important it is to think positively and perform mudras after the appropriate mindset.
With the help of mudras, you can correct your emotional state - increase your tone, calm down, reduce the significance of something, etc., so you need to perform some mudras depending on the situation. Remember that they must be worked out well by you. As we have already said, new mudras should be learned in a calm environment. Mudras will help you feel comfortable in various life situations and develop calmness and peacefulness in yourself. In a balanced state, a person perceives more information from the world around him, understands himself better and uses logic and intuition more fully. Balance as a character trait allows you to make the right decisions and choose the optimal behavior under any circumstances. This is the secret of the success of many famous and happy people.
Most yoga experts recommend practicing mudras for 45 minutes a day. This can be one lesson or 2-3 for 15-20 minutes. The exact time does not matter, just 45 minutes is enough to learn a few mudras and practice them. Short sessions prevent you from getting tired and help you to distract yourself from various problems and relax during the day. If you combine mudras with meditation, you will need more time. So you can decide for yourself how many times a day to perform mudras.
After finishing the class, you can feel a surge of warmth and energy in your body, vigor, improved mood, and a more comfortable state of health. Other sensations may also appear - coldness, increased pain, malaise and fatigue. Any changes in the body mean that the mudras are having their effect. We have already said that it will be gradual and at first may differ from what is desired.
Some mudras change the flow of energy not only in the body, but also in the surrounding space. It follows that mudras can be used to heal another person. At the same time, it is very important to have a sincere intention to help the suffering person. To provide energetic assistance, you can approach the person or, if he is far away, mentally imagine him. Then you need to perform mudra, addressing all positive energy and thoughts to him.
Some mudras can be taught to children. This is easy to do as a game. Gradually, the child will master the most significant mudras for life and health and, as an adult, will use them.
Mudras have become very popular in the West. Their practice is spreading along with the passion for yoga and Eastern culture.
Music helps you easily achieve the necessary emotional state and distracts you from extraneous and obsessive thoughts. It is better to perform mudras accompanied by calm, slow music. Classical pieces of music in appropriate arrangements are suitable for this. When practicing mudras, preference should be given to music performed on the cello, violin, organ, and piano. Orchestral music and singing have a stimulating effect on the body and are not suitable for meditation.
Before incorporating music into your mudra practice, listen to it for a few days and notice how it affects you. If you notice positive effect from the music, then perform mudras to it. It is recommended to practice mudras to music for 30 minutes a day.
Poses for exercise
It doesn't matter whether you perform the mudra while sitting or standing. The main thing is that your back is relaxed and your spine is straight. Correct posture is one of the conditions for practicing mudras.
If you are working out sitting on a chair, then lean against its back, place your feet on the floor parallel to each other. Your knees should be bent at a right angle. Keep your head in line with your spine. Lift your chin, straighten your shoulders, tuck your stomach and you will feel your spine stretching in a straight line.
You can perform mudras while lying on a flat, elastic, horizontal surface. Place a flat pillow under your head. Small pillows can be placed under your knees. In this position, your body will be relaxed and your spine will be as close to a straight line as possible.
When performing mudras while standing, place your feet shoulder-width apart, with your feet parallel to each other.
Some mudras can be done on the go, for example while walking in the park. Walking should be smooth, with even steps and at a moderate pace, and breathing should be calm and rhythmic.
When performing mudras, it is important to maintain symmetry of movements. There should be no distortion or tension in the body. Then energy flows will move freely throughout the body.
In order to find harmony and purify the mind, it is necessary to observe yama not only in words and actions, but even in thoughts. Any temporary pleasure that is contrary to the principles of yama leads to suffering and pain.If you combine mudras with meditation, it is best to do this in asanas (yoga poses). The most suitable position for practicing mudras is a sitting position. In this position, you can take the following poses: padmasana, virasana, sukhasana. These are the main asanas in yoga. It is best to start practicing mudras with simple asanas. Gradually you can move on to more complex ones. If your physical condition does not allow you to take the asana, then sit on a chair and straighten your back.
It is preferable to perform mudras in the lotus position.
This is the most difficult asana. To take it, you need to sit on a hard surface. A floor on which you can lay a gymnastic or other mat is suitable for this. You need to sit with your back straight. The legs should be extended, then grab the big toe of one foot with your hand, bend the leg at the knee and place the foot on the thigh of the other leg. Then repeat everything with the other leg. The lotus pose is considered to be perfectly performed if the hips and knees of both legs touch the floor. Then you need to straighten your shoulders, raise your head and feel how your spine is stretched in a straight line. Place your hands loosely on your hips. Breathe evenly, slowly, with normal depth.
For Eastern people, getting into the lotus position is easy. For others it may not be simple matter. In this case, you do not need to forcefully cross your legs bent at the knees, but rather take another asana.
Sukhasana is a comfortable pose. To take it, you need to sit down and stretch your legs. Then you need to bend right leg at the knee and place the right foot under the left thigh. Perform a similar action with the other leg. In this asana, your back is straight, your legs are bent at the knees and crossed at the ankles.
It is also important that sukhasana, even without performing mudras, has a healing effect on the body. It helps improve posture, brings the chest and abdominal organs to their normal position and condition. This pose improves hip mobility and promotes muscle stretching. lower limbs. Being in this position, a person finds peace and his thinking becomes balanced.
This asana is ideal for beginner yogis and mudra practitioners. It is also suitable for meditation.
Virasana is the hero's pose. It is also suitable for practicing mudras. The pose is simple. Sit on the floor on your knees so that your feet are located on either side of your buttocks.
If the muscles of the lower extremities are insufficiently extensible, this pose may still cause difficulty. Then it is better to sit with your buttocks on your heels. The thumbs should touch each other. As always, you should keep your back straight. In some cases, it is recommended to place a small flat pillow under the buttocks. This asana also leads to improved posture and functioning of internal organs. With constant frequent practice of Virasana, the arch of the foot is strengthened, which prevents flat feet and helps with tired legs. This asana is especially useful for those who spend a lot of time on their feet.
Correct breathing
For yoga and practices wise great value has proper breathing. It increases the effectiveness of these activities and in itself heals the body. Proper breathing is deep and slow, and the muscles of the chest and abdominals should work in a certain way.
When you take a deep breath, more oxygen enters the blood from atmospheric air. Slow breathing is calming and a sign of calm. All ancient Indian treatises on yoga say that a person who has control over his breathing has control over his consciousness. Simultaneously with a sigh, a person receives prana ( vital energy).
The breathing of a healthy person with correct posture corresponds to the full breathing of yogis. It is characterized by the fact that the lungs are completely involved. They are included in breathing in stages - in 3 stages.
Most people breathe primarily from the tops of their lungs and not rhythmically. For many people, the diaphragm barely participates in breathing. This is especially often observed in women who already have a thoracic type of breathing, in contrast to men who have an abdominal type of breathing. With chest breathing, and even shallow breathing, the lower parts of the lungs are practically not ventilated. At the same time, a lot of effort is expended on the work of the chest muscles. Insufficient mobility of the diaphragm and lower parts of the lungs leads to congestion.
If the diaphragm is actively involved in the act of breathing, then it simultaneously performs a massage of the abdominal organs.
It is easy to master correct breathing or full yogi breathing. To do this, you need to stand up straight, raise your head and straighten your back. First you need to feel that your spine is stretched in a straight line and you have accepted correct posture. Next, exhale completely.
Then relax your upper abdomen and begin to inhale through your lower chest. Next, feel how it expands from the air middle part chest, and finally straighten your shoulders, open your collarbones and fill the tops of your lungs with air. Hold your breath for a few seconds. Next you need to exhale reverse order. First, feel the air leaving the tops of the lungs, then the compression of the middle, and then the lower part of the chest, and finally the contraction of the diaphragm. At the end of the exhalation, draw in your stomach and stop for a few seconds. When performing the breathing cycle, all movements should be smooth, without excessive effort.
If you are not used to breathing deeply, then after the first attempts to breathe correctly you may feel dizzy. However, regular training will help you master this breathing and improve the condition of your body.
Proper breathing in some cases helps to get rid of functional disorders of the cardiovascular system.
Massage of internal organs with proper breathing improves the functioning of the stomach and intestines. Proper breathing correlates with the structure of the human body and helps maintain correct posture.
If you master this kind of breathing, then your chest will always be expanded, your shoulder blades will fall into place, and your stomach will tighten. This body position simultaneously gives a person a healthy, attractive and confident appearance.
Correct breathing in combination with mudras will definitely help you cope with illnesses and troubles.
If for some reason you cannot master the full breathing of yogis (for example, due to chest injuries, poor posture), then when practicing mudras, try to breathe as deeply as possible, but without much effort, rhythmically and slowly. This will help you calm down. Intentionally rapid breathing activates the body.
As you prepare to perform mudras and bring your breathing back to normal, you may feel warmth or tingling in your palms.
When performing mudras, it is recommended to apply pressure on the fingers while inhaling. This increases the effectiveness of mudras and tones the body. Such regular practice develops will and determination.
How to do it: fold your hands like a beak. To do this, connect the tips of all fingers on each hand together. It is recommended to perform the mudra 5 times a day for 5 minutes or as needed.
