On a soft aubergine ground, the fine drawing of the Eight Auspicious Symbols unfolds – a meaningful yet calm sight in the meditation corner. The cushion lifts the pelvis so the spine keeps its natural curve, keeping quiet sitting comfortable for longer.
The Eight Auspicious Symbols
The Eight Auspicious Symbols (Sanskrit ashtamangala) are one of the best-known symbol groups of Buddhist art: the protective parasol, the pair of golden fish, the treasure vase, the lotus, the conch shell, the endless knot, the victory banner and the wheel of dharma. Tradition regards them as signs of good wishes and blessing; together they form a complete, harmonious motif.
