A Mudra is a hand symbol used to conduct energy in the flow of the form used.
The Karana Mudra is a symbol for warding off evil and negativity.
- "Karana mudra is popular within the Buddhist tradition, and the Buddha is often depicted performing this gesture. In Buddhism, karana mudra is believed to remove obstacles, cultivate inner peace and guide the practitioner towards enlightenment."
This Mudra is used in yoga to cultivate a strong positive energy by eliminating low or negative vibratory frequencies.
" According to Feng Shui principles, images of the Buddha performing karana mudra should not face the front door, as this space should have a welcoming energy. They should also not be placed in a bedroom or children’s room.
The best placement for karana mudra in the home is a problem area which is either low in energy or in need of a strong energetic clearing,"
The reason this mudra can be used to ward off evil is because everything that is , due to the math of numbers, carries a particular vibratory frequency.
The frequency that oscillates through this mudra is protective to the natural order of peace and prosperity.
