A gentle brook, I seek the ocean,
sitting cross legged on the ground, I imagine.
Index fingers of both hands press thumbs,
other three fingers remain straight,
both arms straight, rest on the knees,
"Chin Mudra" leads to the sublime plane,
**'atman' the soul, merges with the consciousness supreme.

*"Mudra" is a gesture or posture to control the life force(prana), practised by Indians from time immemorial.Each of the 25 Mudras stimulates various nodal points.Mudras have intense effect on nerves and energy flow.
**"Chinmudra"(Chit-consciousness-mudra) symbolizes the confluence of individual(index finger) and universal(thumb) consciousness.Index finger is associated to air element and thumb with fire element.
It is the gesture of receiving.When the palms face upwards in Chin Mudra, the chest and heart areas are opened up.Keep the eyes closed and regulate breathing.Dissipating excess energy Chin Mudra controls anger.
