Today, I’ll be guiding you through a very ancient meditation for developing your human kindness—whether it’s kindness toward others, or even yourself. It’s known as Bandhu Dya Kriya. Bandhu means “brother or comrade;” Dya means “kindness;” and Kriya means “action.”
Sitting tall, either in a chair or on the floor. Resting your elbows alongside your rib cage. Placing your hands in front of your chest, palms facing upward, with the two little fingers touching and the outside part of the base of the palms touching. Joining the tips of the middle fingers and keeping the ring fingers and the index fingers straight and the thumbs pulled back. Holding this mudra before your heart center in a comfortable, prayerful position, but not touching the chest.
Your eyes will be closed and you’ll be inhaling in eight separate “sniffs” through your nose and exhaling completely with a whistle through the puckered lips. If you don’t make sound when you whistle (like me!), just go through the motion.
We’ll be practicing for three minutes. On your own, when starting out, do not practice for longer than 11 minutes until you have sufficient experience.
I’d love to hear about your experience in the comments and as always, am grateful if you pass along this video and/or let other know about my YouTube Channel.
