Ribhu Gita with Kirtan Kriya mudras

The ancient Shaivite text, the Ribhu Gita, was a favorite of Ramana Maharshi.
The new book, Evolving Beyond Thought: Updating Your Brain's Software @ https://www.amazon.com/Evolving-Beyon... gives a detailed discussion on these verses and has the verses as translations, transliterations and in Sanskrit.

The blogpost "Dancing Hands for Lower Anxiety, Higher Cognition and Awakening" @ https://happinessbeyondthought.blogsp... goes through the neuroscience behind these mudras and chanting and how they are used.

In the early days, Ramana and his disciples would recite the Ribhu Gita every night after dinner with each reading a verse in turn. Ramana told one folk who was having difficulty understanding it, "it doesn't matter if you understand the words, just chant it".

The 32 verses that were selected manifested totally spontaneously from the 2000 verses of the Ribhu Gita. This is why "we" was used...She/Universal Consciousness really did it all but that would be too "strange" for many, so this is a compromise rather than arrogate to "me" any responsibility for the selection.

Gratitude to Rich Doyle for arranging the filming and for helpful comments.
