The movement of the legs creates the rhythm. With the tip of the big toes we delicately and gently hit the floor behind our heels slightly bending the knee of the supporting leg. This hitting with our toes is done with the strong beat of mantra chanting. It helps to keep the rhythm and flow during the collective dynamic meditation.
On the tip of the big toe there is a point connected with the sahasrara cakra, which is located on the top of the head. Its stimulation creates favorable mood for meditation.
Slightly bending your knees, we warm up the joints and prepare them for meditation posture. Shifting the body weight from one leg to another calms the mind down. A similar feeling is experienced by the baby being rocked by its mother. There is a symbolic meaning of such leg movement, which is “I step on the earth gently not harming anyone”.
