Guest guest Posted September 7, 2005 Report Share Posted September 7, 2005 Mudras are such that long practice of mudras and concentration upon the sensations and emotions aroused by a specific mudra will lead to the expansion of consciousness. By sensations and emotions, the common variety are not implied; what is implied is the sensation of 'touch' for example. Continued dhyana on the specific form of Guru with specific mudra posture, leads to certain experience of the underlying purpose of each mudra. There is not necessarily a cause-effect relation, it is more of a question of preparedness, as the meaning comes through in a flash, and not as a result of practice itself. By simultaneously trying to attain jnanam through deep contemplation, and the practice of specific mudras, the field will be sufficiently 'fertile' for the meaning to plant itself. One does not need to know the meaning of the mudra prior, the meaning will unfold itself as the consciousness itself expands. This constitutes siddhi. ------------------------ gurorangripadme ManaScenna Lagnam tata: kim tata: kim tata: kim tata: kim ____ Click here to donate to the Hurricane Katrina relief effort. http://store./redcross-donate3/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
