Shakyamuni Buddha is depicted sitting in the lotus pose (padmasana), indicating his steady concentration and mastery over the distractions of the material world. His right hand stretched toward the earth in bhumisparsha mudra, representing his moment of enlightenment, inviting the earth to witness his waking. The left hand, lying gently in his lap in dhyana mudra holding an alms bowl, depicts the profound state of meditation and mindfulness that leads to insight and clarity. Shakyamuni Buddha meditates with a blue body, which is said to help transform negative emotions, especially anger, into wisdom and intelligence. In the Five Pure Lights (Pancha-varna) system, blue is linked to the element of air and the sense of hearing (the ears).
