Mudra is defined as that which enhances positive vibrations and reduces negative Karma. It is often explained as “sealing or locking in”. Mudras are often simplistically viewed as hand gestures but in reality, they involve lot more than intertwining the fingers in interesting ways. Even though Mudras are generally considered as of Tantric origin, they form an integral part of Yogic paths of spirituality such as Hatha Yoga, Jnana Yoga, Bhakti Yoga as well as non-Yogic paths such as Buddhism. Mudras are performed with different limbs of the body and their essential purpose is to focus the mind, generate and direct the inner energies towards a particular objective.

Accessing our unlimited inner power through the right application of Mudra can be learnt. Mudras – simple to complex – facilitate healing and meditation. Given their positive energetic effect on the body, mind and consciousness, Mudras are highly transformative. Mudras can flow into one another or be sustained to direct the flow of Prana for health, concentration and deeper spiritual awareness.

In this in-depth workshop Ram Vakkalanka will share the science and art of Mudras. There are hundreds of Mudras in different traditions, spread over many ancient texts. Under the expert guidance of Ram, we will explore the basics of Mudras, learn some simple exercises that facilitate the Mudra practice, learn Mudras for directing the different energies within us, Meditation, general health as well as specific issues.

This workshop involves intermittent meditation. So, please wear comfortable clothes, have your yoga mat or favourite meditation cushion with you and maintain a distraction-free environment for yourself as well as other participants.
