We have seen many a great thinkers sitting in this mudra with the thumb joined to the index finger and the palms resting on thighs. It is one of the most commonly used mudras i have some across. Many practitioners, practice pranayama and meditation sitting in gyan mudra.
I have experienced that it promotes concentration and a higher sense of focus. It just keeps your senses more stimulated and alert so as to absorb the maximum. So practically speaking if you were to sit for a lecture, or in a meeting or conference; practicing this mudra would surely help. On a more serious note the circulation of subtle energy between the fire element (represented by the thumb) and air element (index finger) stimulates our higher faculties of thinking, logic, co-ordination, analyzing, intuition, concentration and mental balance.
