I am Hindu, and I use hand gestures aka mudras for consecration. Sometimes I mess up on the order of these. In fact something like this happened yesterday. I was blessing water.
Proper Mudra Sequence: Chakra-Shankha-Gada-Galini-Dhenu-Ankusha-Bija-Matsya
My Sequence: Chakra-Gada-Shankha-KURMA (not in the mudras for H2O blessing)-Ankusha-Dhenu-Matsya
As you can see, I left out the Bija mudra completely.
Any way I can remember the proper sequence? My priest emailed me the proper sequence and I copied it here from my email
