the tips of the middle fingers
meet the thumbs
in the mudra for patience
and the mudra for prayer
is simply palm meeting palm flat
for centering
interesting
as when I pray for patience
I hold my palms open
on my legs–
turned upwards in that gesture
of helplessness
as if I expect patience
will fill my hands
when I ask for it
Susan Daniels Poetry 
You made me think about these mudras !!!
I am so drawn to this idea–that the gestures of our hands can be spiritual. Had to explore this a little.
Perhaps it does.
maybe. I do so love that eastern idea that hand postures aid in meditation.
Yes… the act of meditation, however one engages, formally, informally, brings with it a quieting. It happens with me when I do Reiki, so peaceful.
