Ok, right. Got it.
But, if you are trying to imitate the buddha, your thumb goes against the palm and first finger. It is an energy flow thing.
As opposed to the other palm which is being held like a bowl, again, its an energy flow thing.
All that important stuff aside, the only thing bad to do on steemit is to go around saying, I upvoted you, upvote me. So, go out and find people who gotz interesting things to say/write.
I've upvoted and resteemed this comment.
lol
Nice pick up on the placement of my thumb and hand - you're not the first :) I am totally guilty of not positioning either properly as I was too focused on trying to shift that uneasy feeling I get when having my picture taken. I will most definitely take your advice re do's and don'ts on Steemit
Then you should have totally positioned your fingers correctly! lol.
But, seriously, place the tongue against the roof of the mouth to complete the flow circle, to give you more energy. And connect your thumb to your ground finger and use it to ground those feelings.
There are other visualizations and practices if this one isn't up your alley.
You are photogenic enough, so there is no real reason to be uneasy.
However, it is totally caused by you focussing on yourself, looking at yourself.
You are not usually in that frame of mind.
Looking forward to more of your writings.
Geez, that's deep I better read more of your musings
