We can find various hast (hand) mudras (postures) in Indian classical dancing postures. Khajuraho, Ajanta and other ancient time figurines depict with fingers held in different hasta mudras promote healthy human aura resulting in all round success in life.
Hand and fingers when held in defined postures generate tremendous energy flow governed by five great elements. Thumb represents agni (fire), forefinger (index) represents vayu (air), middle finger represents akash (ether), ring finger represents prithvi (earth) and little finger represents apa or jal (water).
Discussed here are only the mudras related to creation of vaastu balance. For better result, these are practiced sitting cross-legged with fingers held gently together in defined posture for 5 to 40 minutes daily, by gradual increase in time devoted.
One most common mudra is Gyan Dhyan Mudra when the thumb and index fingers are brought together. This is depicted by great thinkers in meditative poses of Buddha, Mahavira, Christ, Guru Nanak and other great ones. Its practice ensures mental peace, concentration, memory and spirituality. It helps develop intuition as well. It can be practiced to remove affliction in northeast corner of your home, office or factory.
Surya Mudra is practiced when ring finger is placed at the base of the thumb and thumb is placed over the ring finger giving flow of special energy. It reduces obesity and tension and promotes body balance. This brings about the balance in the East part of the vaastu purush apart from given a robust body to the practitioner.
A balanced west of the vaastu purush can be obtained by practicing Varuna Mudra. Touch the tip of the little finger with the tip of the thumb while the other fingers are kept upright. Regular practice ensures an optimum level of water in the body and heals all water related ailments.
Apan Vayu Mudra or Hriday Mudra can be practiced for imbalance in the Brahmsthana and/or northwest corner. Fold the forefinger down and touch the mound of the thumb. The middle finger and ring fingers touching gently the thumb with the little finger held erect is prescribed for help in heart regulation as well as asthma and breathing problems.
Energisation of the entire vaastu purush, and especially, the creation of balance in northeast corner or direction can be brought about by Pran Mudra. The little and ring finger when placed on the thumb help improve your own vitality, eyesight. The other mudra for the same purpose of energising the vaastu purush in general is Prithvi Mudra i.e. join the ring finger and the thumb together.
South or southwest direction when afflicted in vaastu, Apan Mudra can be practiced.
The middle finger and the ring finger touching the tip of the thumb while the forefinger and the little finger are held upright. This even gives relief in urinary problems or discharge of waste matter from the body. Purification of vaastu purush and your body system is intensified by this.
Akash mudra is formed when the upper tip of the thumb is touched with the front portion of the middle fingle in Vajrasana removes affliction in the Brahmasthan and problems caused by wrong placement of columns and beams in the home, office and factory. Prithvi mudra is achieved by touching the thumb with the ring finger giving the almost the similar vaastu dosh removal effects.
Padmasana and Siddhasana are highly favourable for all above except prescribed otherwise. Special attention should to keep your spine and neck straight. Most necessarily, all other fingers than those joined should be held straight and the eyesight either set straight or half closed - as in meditation. Wishing you all a Happy New Year with great health to you, your family and the vaastu purush of your home, office and factory.
