જૈન મુદ્રા લિસ્ટ
Jain mudras (hand gestures) used in worship and daily practice include:
- Namaskar Mudra (Anjali Mudra): palms pressed together at chest level, in reverence.
- Kshama Mudra: gesture or prayer for forgiveness, often recited during Pratikraman.
- Pratikraman Mudra: a gesture associated with the ritual of Pratikraman, reflecting repentance.
- Veerya Mudra (courage/resolve gesture): a gesture used in certain devotional contexts to symbolize firmness in right conduct.
- Abhaya Mudra (fearlessness): common in Jain iconography as a sign of protection and non-violence.
- Varada Mudra (giving/charity): signifying compassion and benevolence.
Notes:
- Different Jain communities (Digambar and Shwetambar) may describe or emphasize mudras with slightly different names or emphases, but the underlying spiritual meanings remain aligned with ahimsa, truth, and self-discipline.
- If you’re looking for exact texts or a canonical list from Jain scriptures, tell me which context you have in mind (iconography, ritual practice, or meditation), and I can provide precise references and the traditional meanings.
