Abhaya Mudra: Sai Baba Dictionary on (Hasta) Mudhras

Mudhras:

(Hasta) Mudhras: Hand-gestures.

Seven Mudhras of Sathya Sai Baba:

1. First is the Abhaya Mudhra. It is the gesture of the raised right hand allaying fear and assuring protection to the devotees.

2. Second is the Varadha Mudhra. It is the downward pointed right palm bestowing gifts and boons to the devotees.

3. Third is the Anugraha Mudhra. It is the gesture of raising both hands indicating blessings for the progress and welfare of the mass of devotees. It may also be called 'Yoga Kshema Mudhra'.

4. Fourth is the Srujana Mudhra. It is the gesture of the circular waving of the right palm pointed downwards for materialising spiritually charged articles (e.g. sacred ash).

5. Fifth is the Thirodhana Mudhra. It is the gesture of circling the right palm in an outward direction driving away impurities or negativity in the surroundings. Alternatively, it may imply the dematerialization of articles created.

6. Sixth is the Shakthipatha Mudhra. It is the gesture of placing the right palm on top of the head of a devotee for the descent or activation of his spiritual energy.

7. Seventh is the Tharjani Mudhra. It is the gesture of writing in the air with the index finger, or holding up the hand with fingers extended. This may indicate communication with extra terrestrial forces. The significance of these mudhras is that they are for the welfare of the devotees. The descent of an Avathar is always for the enhancement of the spiritual life of people and for the promotion of the practice of Dharma (right conduct).
