Prana is a universal life force. It is a life force because it gives life to things. All vibrating energies are prana. It is the prime mover of all activity. It is energy that creates, protects, and destroys. It is physical, mental, intellectual, spiritual, and cosmic energy. According to the Upanishads, prana is the principle of life and consciousness. When this force drives within, Keeps functions and movements along with many life processes like growth, responsiveness, reproduction, excretion, etc. A nonliving thing cannot move because it doesn’t have a life force. Prana exists everywhere. It can simply convert from one form to another form as scientists said.

Why do the hands and fingers of yogis take on a unique form when they sit for meditation or in some asanas and pranayamas? What do these hand gestures denote in yoga?
The hand gestures a yogi makes during meditation or some sacred kriyas practice are called mudras. They are used to evoke a particular state of mind and have the ability to change one’s mood, attitude, or perspective.

The term Mudra is a Sanskrit word that means Gesture, Mark, Symbol, or Seal. The main purpose of practicing mudra is to restore our physical and Mental Energy. This means in day-to-day life one or another way we are losing our energy. Energy is lost through our nerve endings. So we have to create one strong circuit to cycle this energy in its own axis. So, scientifically mudra means “Circuit bypass of energy”. If you break down Mudra into two words it will be Mud and Ra. Now the dictionary meaning will be like this Mud means “Joy” and Ra means “Produce”. Hence mudra means gestures that produce joy and happiness.

“Yoga therapy is a self-empowering process, where the care-seeker, with the help of the Yoga therapist, implements a personalized and evolving Yoga practice, that not only addresses the illness in a multi-dimensional manner but also aims to alleviate his/her suffering in a progressive, non-invasive and complementary manner. Depending upon the nature of the illness, Yoga therapy can not only be preventative or curative but also serve as a means to manage the illness, or facilitate healing in the person at all levels.”

The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words – Rei which means “God’s Wisdom or the Higher Power” and Ki which is “life force energy”. So Reiki is actually “spiritually guided life force energy.”

A treatment feels like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you. Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind, and spirit creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security, and wellbeing. Many have reported miraculous results.

Reiki is a simple, natural, and safe method of spiritual healing and self-improvement that everyone can use. It has been effective in helping virtually every known illness and malady and always creates a beneficial effect. It also works in conjunction with all other
medical or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote recovery.

While Reiki is spiritual in nature, it is not a religion. It has no dogma, and there is nothing you must believe in order to learn and use Reiki. In fact, Reiki is not dependent on belief at all and will work whether you believe in it or not. Because Reiki comes from God, many people find that using Reiki puts them more in touch with the experience of their religion rather than having only an intellectual concept of it.

While Reiki is not a religion, it is still important to live and act in a way that promotes harmony with others. Mikao Usui, the founder of the Reiki system of natural healing, recommended that one practice certain simple ethical ideals promote peace and harmony, which is nearly universal across all cultures.
