AKASHIC REVELATION
FIXING THE GAZE INWARDS INTO THE
INNER SPACE AND WITH THE EYES
OPENING OUT, BUT DEVOID OF THE
ACTS OF OPENING AND CLOSING OF THE
EYELIDS, THIS ŚAMBHAVI-MUDRA IS
ASSUMED. THIS MAHĀ-VIDYA (THE
GREAT ULTIMATE SOURCE KNOWLEDGE)
IS, OF ALL THE TANTRAS, WHAT IS KEPT
A PROFOUND SECRET. WITH THE
EXPERIENTIAL KNOWLEDGE OF THIS, IS
ATTAINED FREEDOM AND COMPLETION
FROM THE STATE OF WORLDLY
EXISTENCE. BY ITS WORSHIP, IS
BESTOWED THE FRUIT OF LIBERATION.

AKASHIC REVELATION
THE CLEANSING (WITH THE
PRANAYAMA) OF THE HEAPS OF
IMPURITIES (IN THE NADIS), THE
BRINGING ABOUT OF THE UNION
BETWEEN THE MOON AND THE SUN,
THE COMPLETE DRYING UP OF THE
BODILY FLUIDS, RASAS (VAATA, PITTA
AND KAPHA), IS KNOWN AS THE
MAHĀMUDRĀ. WITH THE CHIN LAID
ON THE CHEST, PRESSING THE ABYSS OF
THE GENITALS WITH THE LEFT FOOT,
HOLDING WITH THE TWO HANDS THE
OUTSTRETCHED RIGHT LEG, FILLING
WITH BREATH THE PAIR OF BELLIES
AND HOLDING IT UP, ONE SHOULD
SLOWLY EXHALE IT. THIS INDEED IS
SAID TO BE THE SIN-DESTROYING
MAHA-MUDRA FOR MEN.
