Mudras and symbols

[Fidlestix]

I hope I am putting this in the right place.

I see this Mudra a lot, it is used in Reiki, Dentoh Karate and I have also seen a rapper use it but what does it mean?

I had to put it on my website as I can not directly upload it on here.

If the link does not work the website is Dipseyaura.com But I will not be leaving the image on there for long.

I would appreciate any answers because I have been trying to get help with this for some time.

Hakini Mudra
This mudra is said to benefit the brain, third eye and lungs including balancing the right and left sides of the brain and creating cooperation between them.


~I googled mudra image, then finding the right mudra, googled hakini mudra...the above is a brief explanation.

It is definitely not the Hakini mudra in which all the finger tips connect.

It looks more like Zai (although the fingers should be spread and not together), the Sun-Wheel mudra, the 8th mudra of the Kuji-in, or Kuji-kiri series. The whole series is also known as the 9 seals, or in popular language the 9 seals of the Ninja.

By practicing with this set, you will establish a relationship with the
Universal components of creation: the elements. These elements
are not only physical, they are also spiritual. This Kuji practice is a
basis for the power of manifestation.
Lepine Francois, Qi-Gong and Kuji-In, F.Lepine publishing, 2006
The triangle, as it also appears in the Mandala of the Womb World, symbolizes the fire that destroys all impurities.
At the same time, it is like a type of gateway and especially helpful in becoming one with other beings and things.

Great! Thank you very much for your help. I've tried to find out the meanings for a long time. My Reiki Master didn't know and wasn't interested in finding out.
