10 Buddhist Mudras and their Meaning: Mudras of Buddha

Mudras are the hand gestures and finger postures used in representations of the Buddha.
Movements of the hands are used to represent motions or movements of the mind and are central to expressing the meaning of the Dharma
These well-defined gestures have a fixed meaning throughout all styles and periods of Buddha images.
They are also used by monks in their spiritual exercises of ritual meditation and concentration.
