What would happen in practice?
After briefly describing the effects of mudras, their theory and practice It is important that some knowledge of actual events during a practice known as they can cause some unnecessary alarm and consternation.

A feeling of warmth, tingling, and power in different parts of the body – the same as above.
A tingling feeling, and energy flowing through the body – which means that the chains were purified from Nadi to a certain extent and that energy flows now freely without obstruction in its path.
Nod – a sign that the energies are at the helm to clear the paths of energy.
Vertigo – This is an indication of circulatory problems. mudra practice cease for the time until the body finds a certain degree health. physical gymnastics at this stage would be pointless.
Dismantling of manpower training – which shows that the body has absorbed enough energy for the time or overloaded. Whatever happens here, just follow the movement.
Yawning and belching – This denotes the stagnation of chi (prana), or energy is withdrawn.
Spontaneous pranayama, or control of the life force that flows with the breath – This shows that the Shakti flowing in body took control of respiratory processes and so gradually the mind can be transformed and awareness principle will be higher. If spontaneous pranayama, it is kumbhaka (retention of breath), and naturally, effortlessly.
Activity of inner perception or the manifestation of psychic visions, sounds, etc. – which means that the contents of the unconscious has been cleaned of all dirt. During this process, the views of gods and demons can occur, landscapes you can see, hear unusual sounds.
Jerking movements of the body like a frog jumping as if the uprising was to take place.
States experience negative emotional anger, hatred, etc. – this is caused through purification sushumna force Shakti, or the central channel of the etheric body corresponding to the spine. All our karmas, traumas, pain and emotional feelings of our past and present have been made and when it is released and deported to their home Shakti crystallization and the psyche temporarily re-experience. positive feelings of happiness, joy and happiness is also presented in sushumna and these too can be experienced.
If stood while mudras, may suddenly feel an inner strength and support movements of the hands, feet and limbs in a dance sample is also a possibility iconic by Shiva in the cosmic dance.
It should be noted that all these sensations and movements of the hand, are temporary and are certain phases of pranic or energy influence. The movements can be started with the support of the principle of the first meeting, but change with movements or even calm. Convulsions and spasms are common manifestations of energy in the subtle bodies activities and physical. These are positive signs to let them pass. Kriya Yoga that bandhas, and the types of processes mentioned in the text of yoga mudra can also Gheranda Samhita occur naturally. spontaneous occurrences of them are safe – far safer than doing the yoga exercises through their own conscience and forcing their manifestation. If none of the above observed during the practice, a spiritual guru knowledge may empower the disciple at their discretion to that progress can act in a higher rate.
What processes occur in spontaneous movement or yoga are necessary and appropriate you. The energy that flows through Shakti you know what to do to spiritualize and transform your entire being. Shakti is an evolutionary force and she rise to new heights if you let them. When Shakti through your being, you may find yourself spontaneously practice, all systems of yoga. For example, you may find yourself withdrawing their senses and focus on your Higher Self, as in Raja Yoga comes to an overflowing love nature and all life, as in Bhakti Yoga, or even acquiring divine knowledge effortlessly, as in Jnana Yoga. You may even find yourself singing as Mantra Yoga.
Do not be afraid or fear of movements that occur naturally, without his will or conscious direction. You can exercise their will at any time to stop if you wish, however, to ensure that it is difficult to hidden work that is done for you by the presence of spiritual strength. It would be preferable to let take its course. Only in this way to reap the benefits of mudra practices.
There are many stories of spiritual practitioners experiencing spasms and involuntary body and hands while engaging in meditation. One of the spiritual messengers of God referred to as "the Seal of Prophets" is an example:
One day while meditating in a cave on the mountain. Hira, Muhammad, the Prophet of Islam said that the future shuddered uncontrollably. That's when a voice ordered "recite" or "read". In response to the speech that has been able to do so, it took a moment a spiritual presence (Shakti) that was previously estimated in its neighborhood (ForceField).
What was the true nature of the experience the Prophet? If the crises he experienced symptoms of an unusual energy flowing in your body? What were the spiritual exercises of yoga are engaged in that led to this experience? Have use of mudras, or any other esoteric practices? It is said that the Prophet was the son of a widow "is." In the esoteric language refers to open a school of mystery, the latter has been called a "widow" after the goddess Isis has lost her husband, Osiris, the machinations of his brother Set, who is the personification of evil and materialism. Isis was the symbol of mystery. In these disciplines and mystical schools spiritual practices have been taught to initiates. Mudras are certainly one of the many lessons as given. After mastering the teachings and to reach a higher level of consciousness, the initiate who emerge from the womb Isis and Horus into the alleged murderer of his uncle's evil.
Mudras & Spirituality
It is important to note that the sensations, effects, and powers that mudras help reveal not an end in themselves – are simply a means to an end. They are tools that can help us to achieve self-realization. The trend towards a higher state of consciousness the unity of experience or what is should be our main objective. Other reasons are as adornments to abandonment. Mudras, meditation or other religious discipline when exercised in the interest acquiring the gifts of the Spirit is not the spiritual work or spirituality. offer unsolicited advice is not spirituality; predict the future of the people is not spirituality; perpetuate a sense of mortality and helplessness in people is not the spirituality; make other materialistic attitudes is not to maintain the spirituality. For the Giver rather than the spiritual gifts, to give selflessly is spirituality, to compel his desire to leave, or to impose their will upon others is spirituality. Although the sense of separation exists, the sense of duality, illusion we are separate from everything else, never reach the state of true spirituality where only divine love is the law. The "heresy" of dualism in his conception of mind and spiritual blindness is to continue the dream "All time", where one is ignorant, unconscious and unresponsive to the eternal truth of Oneness.
Spirituality has many expressions, however, none of them has nothing to do with the acquisition or display of psychic powers in vain. Insiders are not always powerful psychological or magic, but are sensitive to inspiration, to spiritual impulses emanating from celestial spheres and the Spirit inside. Those who seek power with the ambition psychic abilities for selfish and generally are constrained in Astral area where toys are evil spirits. It is much wiser to first purify the mind, body and soul of all negative energies, congestion, the sense of limits and bottlenecks and develop the look-love wisdom and intelligence soul before undertaking any development psychic. Without our own spiritual and moral preparation, we would deceived, misled and trapped by wayward psychic forces. Mudras are certainly help in the way of purification, but must be accompanied by other practices and studies that awakens the heart, and learning esoteric wisdom.
Preparation
Allow hand
There are points of power in the hands and fingers as they are all the physical-etheric. Called chakras (lit. "wheels") in the philosophy of yoga, the vortices of energy can be detected and verified its existence in various ways. Perhaps the simplest method is to be sitting directly in their hands. This requires a degree of sensitivity, however, that it be acquired through an exercise that will provide below.
Clocks can also be used for detection. Hold a pendulum (Any kind will do) in his right hand and hold it above the palm of his left hand. Add slowly move in circles. The switch may be in the direction hours or left, depending on the flow of energy from the palm of whether inward or outward. The circumference and the speed of the swing indicates the size and activity chakra. At various places in the fingertips the pendulum might swing too indicating the presence of a minor chakra.
As part of Mudra Vidya or the science "of Mudras," What kind of development or empowerment of the hands should What kind of preparation is necessary a good performance mudras?
First, it would be useful to massage your hands often to make it flexible enough to take positions mudras.

Hands massage after practice mudra is also proposed to help blood circulation and eliminate stiffness.
People suffering from short, fat hands may have problems doing certain mudras, unlike people with long fingers and thin that identify as palmistry "Philosophical" and "psychic". However, subjects with short fingers normally are not the type you might be interested in yoga training spiritual, or mudras, logically speaking, that the person reading this series of articles is intended to develop spirituality, which should not find any practical obstacle mudras or forms of execution.

All relaxation method taught in schools can be used hidden you can use the contraction of muscles, perhaps with visualization and auto- – The fact is that the physical body and mind should be deeply relaxed so they can not impede the flow of energy coursing through subtle channels.
