What is Mayur Pankh Mudra?
Mayur means Peacock and Pankh means feather. The Mayur Pankh Mudra is a practice that originates from the act of a Peacock spreading its feathers. A Peacock’s Root Chakra resides in its feathers. The feather of a Peacock is considered sacred and pure. That is why, when a Peacock spreads its feathers, it looks the most beautiful and it is also an invitation to mate and be closer to Mother Earth.
Performed towards the end of a Sadhana, Mayur Pankh Mudra aims at absorbing all the energy generated during the Sadhana from our fingertips to our body. The purity and sacredness of a Peacock’s feathers are achieved when a person performs the Mudra.
Method
1. Make Sure you are in a quiet and dark-room. The Darker the room, the better the experience.
2. After performing the Sadhana, lift your palms up to your eyes and keep them slowly on your eyes, as shown in the video (hyperlink to live video cut of Mayur Pankh Mudra)
3. Keep your palms on your eyes as softly as you can, resembling the touch of a Peacock’s Feathers
4. Feel the energy transferring from the fingertips to the palms and from the palms to the Third Eye
5. Do the Mudra for a minimum of two minutes and as you practice more, try extending it to five minutes.
6. Feel the light spreading from your Third Eye around the room (this is why we choose a dark room)
7. Once done, lift your palms slowly, open your eyes, look at your palms, rub them together and touch them over your forehead, eyes, face, heart, and all the Chakras you’d like to work on.
The Science Behind It
When we perform Sadhana, the entire energy and powers from the Sadhana come and rest on our fingertips. Since our hands are the most used parts of our body, if not integrated and collected, this energy and power can easily flow from our fingers into the air, thus, rendering the entire practice wasted. Hence, after the Sadhana, the Sadhak puts their palms on their eyes, the energy from the fingertips flowing into their palms, and absorb the energy beginning from the Third Eye, going to the entire body, heart, mind, and soul.
