16Like many Indian children, I was taught this chant when I was very young. It was only much later in life that I discovered that when chanted correctly, the frequency increases exponentially. Also I found out from Mrs. Benita Sharma that the 32 Gayatri Mudras when done with the Gayatri Mantra make it very powerful. In mudra practice, each of the five fingers represents one of the five core elements — the Pancha Maha Bhutas — and a distinct aspect of consciousness. Joining different fingers directs the flow of prana, life force, through the body.
17
18This course combines the chant and the mudras in such a way that the elements in the body, energetic as well as physical, get balanced to create harmony and remove dis-ease.

20The Gayatri Mudra practice will be led by Mrs. Benita Sharma, who healed herself of cancer without conventional medication. The practice played an important part in her healing.
