Mudra Healing
Sometimes, we have to think sentimentally too…
Naran
If mind (middle finger) joins with ring finger, then we will think emotionally. This combination of Middle and ring fingers becomes the emotional mind.
The emotional mind consists of opposite qualities like joy, happiness and worry, Fear and fearlessness, anger and love.
In emotional state, every opposite quality exists simultaneously. We pick up any emotion, depending on the thinking mind.
I want to be angry with that person. The moment you think that, a state of anger is produced. And, the emotion can act without the thinking mind (index finger) also.

Activating the rational mind
Naran
The mind operates with ego.
Which is the biggest finger? Ego must be the biggest finger, which is the middle finger.
Ego cannot work separately. It has to think. Index finger is the thinking mind. Ego is mind and mind thinks with the index finger. That is why both are close to each other.
You write with index finger. The moment you touch the pen, the thoughts flow. That means it must be the thinking finger– the finger that produces thoughts.
For the Mind to become a rational mind or analytical mind (index finger) the thumb has to join the middle finger, which represents ego, and the index finger which represents thinking.

FAQ on Mudras
Student: What is the significance of putting the thumb with other fingers?
Thumb represents Prana – our life force. If there is no life in the body what is the use of the body? Similarly, if thumb is not used, no Mudra will be activated.
Prana means Universal Life energy.
Instructions on doing mudras
- Except for special Mudras, for all mudras, one had to keep the mudra on both the hands.
- You can chant mantra or switch words silently, while doing the mudra.
- You can walk, lie down, sit down or watching TV while doing the mudra.
- There is no time to do mudras. You can do it all the time. Of course, they are very effective when you do the mudras between 4-6 AM.
- In general, Mudra you can do for 30-45 minutes, Mantra can be done all the 24 hours.
- There are exceptions to that rule. Don’t do Linga mudra for more than 15 minutes at a time. However mudras like Chin Mudra and Acceptance mudra can be done throughout the day.
- All mudras are beneficial to us without any side-effects. However, for some it might produce an unwanted side-effect. In such a case, please stop doing it and contact Naran.
- You need not press the fingers hard when you touch the tip of the thumb or while placing them at the base of the thumb. No pressure should be applied. Pressure means, your mind is restless and not stable.
The above points were discussed during the workshop on Mudras, Hyderabad, on 16thFeb, 2013.
Mudra for Savings Part I
Naran
Do the Vitality Mudra or Pran Mudra for savings. Thumb touching the little and ring fingers on both the hands.
If mind is in a solid container it will produce a sense of relaxation. Mind is here. Thought is no-where. The mind and thought are separated. The thinking is separated. What else I can do? I can sleep. This Mudra can produce sleep also.
Other benefits of doing this mudra
Vitality, elimination, relaxation, rest, calmness, composure, affectionate, and motherliness.
Not to be shaken by other’s anger – when somebody else is shouting or is angry, be in this mudra which activates composure.
This mudra activates the life force – meeting point of Fire, Earth and Water elements.
Blood flow is regulated. Blood clots are reduced and excreted, muscles are strengthened, immunity is improved and promotes good sleep.
When one is worried and restless, additionally keep the index and middle fingers at the base of the thumb, while the ring and little fingers are touching the tip of the thumb.
Physical – for eye sight, for Diabetes.

Beat the Cold
R Mohan
I have a severe cold with running nose.
Naran
Do LINGA Mudra (both hands clasped together, with left thumb in upright position) for 20 minutes. Then do SAFE and SECURE Mudra (thumb touching ring and little fingers on both the hands) for another 20 minutes.
R Mohan
I did as you suggested. I took rest for a while keeping in mind that while we sleep, our body does the necessary healing (as mentioned by Naran).
After waking up, I did the Mudras again for 15 minutes. I was alright (without any medication). Thanks.
Naran
Due to pollution, we get afflicted with cold.
The thick phlegm produced and deposited inside the lungs will be converted into liquid form by the Linga Mudra and will be sent to the Hara Chakra (the chakra that handles water element) by the Safe and Secure Mudra.

What is the healing benefit of the mudra you have taught above? Is it to let go?
Naran
Index finger at the base of the thumb will make one inhale deeply.
The breathing of the worrying person is shallow and fast, which is changed by the mudra into deep and slow breathing.
The person will relax and his relaxation is enhanced by the Pran Mudra (thumb touching the tips of little and ring fingers on both the hands).
For stress relief: chant “QUIET MIND, OPEN HEART, RELAX”

Fingers are not in place
Andrei
When I do this Varun Mudra I hardly can do it for 5 min, my hands are starting to hurt. Is there is a problem with the palms or it is a general water element`s problem?
Naran
Since there is no practice of Mudras, it happens. Do it for some time. You will be ok in another fifteen days.
