With its iconic gesture of turning the wheel of Dharma, this beautiful hand encapsulates the essence of Buddhist philosophy and practice.

A Mandala decorates the palm of the hand, a symbol of meditation and serenity.
In various spiritual traditions, mandalas can be used to focus the attention of practitioners and adepts, as a spiritual guidance tool, for establishing a sacred space and as an aid to meditation. In the Eastern religions of Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Shinto it is used as a map representing deities, or especially in the case of Shinto, paradises, kami or actual shrines.
A mandala generally represents the spiritual journey, starting from outside to the inner core, through layers.
The hand is mounted on a wood base.
