Useful Inverted posture for Mind & Pran (Life)

Viprit karni Mudra : Viprit means inverted & Karni means action in Sanskrit. The usual posture of the body is inverted in this posture. Out of 14 important Mudras in Yog Viprit Karni is one of such Mudra. The difference between asana & mudras is that while asanas are more related to veins & nadis , the mudras are deeply related to Mind & Pran. Naturally mudras are recognized as more significant than asanas.





We know that the activity of the body-nerves , bone-marrow , mind & pran continues unabated. Consequently our pranic energy & age start decaying. The chief aim of yogic practices is to save this decay. It is here Mudra play an important role. The Nectar of the body flows into the naval centre where it is totally consumed by digestive fire. By the practice of this mudra the naval gets inverted upward with the result that this nectar is properly utilized in the upper centers of the body.
