Mudra Fusion Belly Dance
Main Entry: mu·dra
Pronunciation: m&-'drä
Function: noun
Etymology: Sanskrit mudrA
: one of the symbolic hand gestures used in religious ceremonies and dances of India
In Buddhism and Hinduism, a symbolic gesture of the hands and fingers used in ceremonies, dance, sculpture, and painting.
Hundreds of mudras are used in ceremony and dance, often in combination with movements of the wrists, elbows, and shoulders. In ceremonies, especially in Buddhism, a mudra acts as a kind of seal, affirming a mystical or magical vow or utterance, such as a prayer to ward off evil. A mudra often accompanies the utterance of a mantra.
ANOTHER
Vajra Fusion Belly Dance
Five-pronged ritual object extensively employed in the ceremonies of Tibetan Buddhism.
It is fashioned out of brass or bronze, the four prongs at each end curving around the central fifth to form a lotus-bud shape. In Sanskrit the word means both thunderbolt and diamond: like a thunderbolt it cuts through ignorance, and like a diamond it destroys but is itself indestructible. Originally a symbol of Indra, it was used to conquer the non-Buddhist deities of Tibet. In ritual use, it is often employed in conjunction with a bell in the execution of mudras.
