History of Palmistry The earliest Hindu sacred writings, known as the Vedas, consist of various collections of hymns, prayers and liturgical formulas as well as teachings on ultimate reality and the liberation of the soul. The word Veda means knowledge in Sanskrit. Vedic palmistry is the study of the structure and markings of the human hand. The ancient rishis or seers believed that there was a correlation between the visible features of the hand, the conscious and subconscious thought processes of the mind and the superconscious intuition of spirit. The study of Vedic palmistry provides a language for expressing this body/mind/soul connection. Its purpose is to help us gain self-understanding. The interpretation of the data available to us in the hand enables us to see where our hidden potentials lie. We can learn to resolve inner conflicts by establishing an equilibrium in body, mind, and spirit. By eliminating self-defeating attitudes, we can harness our inner resources. We can apply what we learn about ourselves through the study of palmistry to specific areas of daily life: career guidance, health diagnosis, marital counseling, interpersonal conflict resolution and spiritual direction.
