Hand Gesture 6:"Anjali"

When both the palms in Pataka are joined together we get the Anjali Mudra. In the Indian culture this Mudra is very often used for greeting elderly people or anyone whom we are meeting for the first time.
  • This mudra is used to offer salutation to the God, Elders, and Teachers.
  • It is used to show the respect and greetings to the people whom we meet.
  • Mostly this hand gesture will be used as the first pose before starting the dance.
