BHUMISPARSHA MUDRA

Bhumisparsha Mudra

This Gesture signifies Gautama Buddha's call to the earth goddess to witness his enlightenment in Bodhgaya and his victory over temptation by Mara. In this gesture, the right elbow rests on the right thigh with fingers pointing palm downwards but usually not touching the ground. The left hand rests palm up in the Dhyana mudra position on the lap.
