The hand gesture presented in the thangka is often referred to as Samadhi or Yoga mudra. It is performed by placing two or one hand on the lap and placing the right hand on the left hand with stretched fingers (thumbs pointing upwards and other fingers of both hands resting on each other.) This is the signature gesture of Buddha Shakyamuni, Dhyani Buddha Amitabh, and the Medicine Buddha.
Siddhartha Guatama Buddha, also often referred to as Shakyamuni, was a spiritual teacher upon whose lessons the foundations for Buddhism were formed. He is regarded as the Supreme Buddha and is the first enlightened individual to be visualized.
