The ritual hand-poses of the Buddha Priests and the Shiva Priests of Bali, London, 1925, 2 "edition, 1942; Aisaburo Akiyama, Buddhist Hand- Symbol, Yokohama, 1939, to him particularly valuable for illustrations). As is clear from Sabdastomamahaniddhi, P. 488 (quoted by Oppert, The Original Inhabitants cf India, p. 414, n. 170) mudra appears to have another sense: eating "fried grain. The mudra have considerable importance in the rituals of Japanese Buddhist sects of Tantric origin: If you-do-in-dzou. Gestures of them Vofficiantdans mystiques ceremonies et des Singon Tendai headquarters (Paris, 1899, p. 3-5, 15, 23, 31-38, eta). Do not remember the symbolism of gestures in the other religions (see, eg S. Langdon, Journal Royal Soc Aires, 1919, p. 531-556 and the Iranian side provided by JJ Modi, Asiatic Papers, vol III , Bombay 1927, p. 170-194). But it is interesting that the symbolic valorization of the rituals is maintained even in the most mystical evoluci6n, A century earlier Persian tradition gives jnv Al Hallaj the creation of a short text about the symbolism of the fifteen attitudes required during prayer canonical "mouthwash, is to acquire sincerity, suck water up the nose, js deny the pride stand in the attitude held high, is part of (a divine permanence, or shelter in his tent canopies, bow, solidarity is isolated in divinity. "(L. Massignon, Al Hallaj, mdrtir mystic of Islam, vol. II, 782). See also L. Gardet, nam Mention du divin, p. 665. On the mudra in tantric rituals, Tantra Mahanirvana (ed. Avalon, Madras, 1927), III, 4 (karanyasay dnganyasa), V, 48-74 (yonimudra), 86, 112 (jnana mudra, etc.).; Saradatilaka Tantra , VI, 75-111; Kamaratna Tantra (ed.

Dasgupta, An Introduction to Tantric Buddhism, p. 113, 177-178, 187. In the left hand Tantrism, mudra is the name of the sex rite compafiera (see pag. 248). It's hard to explain how it reached this designation; Przyluski notes that mudra, lit. "seal" also means "womb." But we shall see a continuation, the true meaning of sexual union in the Tantric ritual is the "freezing" of boddhicitta (in the contexts of this genre, appoints the semen virile). And the bandha mudra Hathayoga are used by the body positions through the quasi-they get to control the muscles and nerves in the genital region: now, as is clear from the text, this control is in relation to the control of respiration. Semen is mastering as respiration dominates, it can "stop", "freeze" in the same way that stops the respiration during the kumbhaka. Keep in mind that the "freezing" of semen through pranayama is always associated with a similar immobilization of states of consciousness (see p. 244). Note VI, 5: Mantra and Dharani.
