What are Mudras?
According to the Vedic culture of ancient India, our entire world is made of the five elements called as The Panch-Maha-Bhutas. The five elements being Earth , Water , Fire , Wind and Space/Vacuum . They are also called the earth element, water element, fire element, wind element and space element.
These five elements constitute the human body the nutrients from the soil (earth) are absorbed by the plants which we consume (thus we survive on the earth element), the blood flowing through own veins represents the water element, the body heat represents the fire element, the oxygen we inhale and the carbon dioxide we exhale represents the wind element and the sinuses we have in our nose and skull represent the space element.
As long as these five elements in our body are balanced and maintain appropriate levels we remain healthy. An imbalance of these elements in the human body leads to a deteriorated health and diseases.
Now understand this, the command and control center of all these five elements lies in our fingers. So literally, our health lies at our fingertips.
The Mudra healing method that I am going to teach you depends on our fingers.
To understand this, we should first know the finger-element relationship:
Thumb Fire element.
Index finger Wind element.
Middle finger Space/Vacuum element.
Third finger Earth element.
Small finger Water element.
This image will give you a better understanding of the concept:
When the fingers are brought together in a specific pattern and are touched to each other, or slightly pressed against each other, the formation is called as a Mudra.
When the five fingers are touched and pressed in a peculiar way to form a Mudra, it affects the levels of the five elements in our body, thus balancing those elements and inducing good health.
P.S. The Mudra Healing Methods arent just theory or wordplay; these are healing methods from the ancient Indian Vedic culture, proven and tested over ages.
