Cross-Heart Kirtan Kriya Taught by Yogi Bhajan

Mudra: Sit straight. Cross the forearms, below the wrists, and hold them in front of the chest. Arms are out slightly, palms up and a little toward the chest.

Look down at the tip of the nose.

Mantra: Begin to chant: Saa – taa- naa – maa –as you play the fingers by touching the thumb tip to the fingertips in the following fashion:

Saa – touch the tip of the thumbs to the index fingers cross heart kirtan kroya

Taa – touch the tip of the thumbs to the middle fingers

Naa – touch the tip of the thumbs to the ring fingers

Maa – touch the tip of the thumbs to the pinkie fingers

Continue for 11 – 31 minutes

End: Inhale, hold the breath, roll the eyes up and become completely still. Relax the breath.

Comments: The hemispheres of the brain will balance; the past will be processed and dumped, and insecurity will vaporize.
