The Gyan Mudra, with the thumb and index finger touching, symbolises the union of the individual self with the universal consciousness. This mudra is said to enhance focus, clarity and wisdom.

2. Abhaya Mudra - Fearlessness

By extending the palm outwards with the fingers upright, the Abhaya Mudra radiates a sense of confidence, courage and protection. This mudra can help overcome fears and self-doubt.

3. Varada Mudra - Compassion

The gesture is typically performed with the palm of the right hand facing outward and the fingers pointing downward, often with the thumb and index finger slightly touching.

4. Vajra Mudra - Inner Strength

The Vajra Mudra, formed by interlocking the fingers with the index finger extended, shows unwavering determination and inner fortitude. This mudra can help harness the mental and emotional resilience.

5. Shunya Mudra - Emptiness

Fold the middle finger and touch thumb. Gently press thumb down on the middle finger. It promotes a sense of calmness and helps balance the space element in the body associated with emptiness.
