Join the thumbs and little fingers like lotus. Lack of
sleep is a big problem to cancer patients. This mudra helps to overcome that
problem. Don’t keep more pressure on fingers while keeping mudra. As per
Indian system, lotus is a symbol of purity Like a lotus, which remains detached
from the mud in which it blooms, a sage remains detached from the mud of
attachment, while continuing his meditation. By keeping the fingers like lotus,
the Pankaj mudra is formed. In this mudra both the thumbs and little fingers
touch each other. This mudra- develops the fire and water elements and refines
those elements. Like the lotus, which blooms at sunrise, the fire element makes
the inner lotus bloom. At night, like the blooming of lotus under moonlight the
water element also brightens the face (Chandra Kamal). The remaining fingers
face each other, which naturally leads to transition of their virtues, leading
to development of the capability to provide vital energy to others.
