Mudras for Connecting with the Divine

Have you ever read that a person will be asked at Heaven's gate if he or she has prayed or meditated enough while on Earth? Definitely not. It doesn't matter how often we sit or kneel and meditate, but rather how and whether we have lived a fulfilled life and expressed the will of cosmic consciousness through what we have done and not done. Our task in life consists of doingour best and leaving the works up to the Divine before and after their completion.
The supreme rule of all great religious communities has always
been, "Pray and work." We don't have to join an order to do this; we can
also do it alone.
Mudras 19, 40, 42, 43 ,44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, and 52 help us find
repose and also lead us to inner peace, contentment, and joy. In turn, we
should let peace and joy flow into our words and works, carrying them out
into the world.
