Guest guest Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Claudia, Thank you for the new information on the mudras. In the Buddhist temple where I go on occasion for some of my Buddhist study and meditation, we have 10 buddha statues, each with its hands in various mudra positions. My question is how do mudras work? What is happening when we use certain mudras? Also, should we do the different mudra as we breath through each chakra? Also I understand how to breathe in through a chakra, but what do we do with the out breath? Thank you!

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Thank you Claudia for providing these for us! I really do appreciate it a great deal! Thank Rusty for posing for us! You never know, he very well may be k active before he knows it. Anyway, once again, thank you! Love, Katherine Claudia <newtfoodbowl Tuesday, January 15, 2008 4:23:02 PM new mudras for chakra breathing Chrism showed me some new mudras to use during chakra breathing and asked me to share them with you. I have uploaded 2 new photos in a new album titled " Mudras. " One shows the traditional Gyan mudra that we use for almost everything and the other shows the Mukula mudra, which is to be used when breathing into the fifth (Vishuda) chakra. I included a photo of the Gyan mudra to remind you that it is important to touch NOT the pads of the thumb and forefinger together but the TIPS, so curl your fingers around as much as necessary (without touching any of your fingers together) in order to bring the TIP of your thumb together with the TIP of your forefinger. For the Mukula mudra, bring all of your fingers tips together with the thumb so that all 4 fingertips are in contact with the thumb. Here's the succession of mudras to use with the Chakra Breathing exercise: Root chakra (Muhladhara) : Gyan mudra Sacral chakra (Svadhistana) : tip of thumb to tip of second finger Solar chakra (Manipura); tip of thumb to tip of third (ring) finger Heart chakra (Anahata): tip of thumb to tip of fourth (pinky) finger Throat chakra (Vishuda): Mukula mudra (I imagine there are names for the other mudras that I have simply described, lol, but did not give them to me and I could not find them on the Internet. Will supply later! As you know, we do not breathe into the Brow and Crown chakras except during Shaktipat. Please let me know if you have any questions! Love & blessings, Claudia P.S.
