Gesture of teaching, of starting the wheel of the law: dharmacakra-mudrā

The right hand is vertical, palm facing forward, thumb and index finger touching; the left hand is inclined and at an angle, the palm is turned inwards, the thumb and the index finger are touching; the fingers of the left hand touch the right hand.

After his Awakening in Bodh-Gayā, Śākyamuni goes to Sārnāth, near Benares (Vāraṇāsī), and delivers his first public teaching in front of his five former ascetic companions whom he meets in the deer park (Mṛgadāva) of Sārnāth. This gesture, called “setting in motion the Wheel of the Law (dharmacakra)” symbolizes this first sermon.

This gesture is also attributed to the buddha of the past Viśvabhū, the buddha Vairocana and the buddha of the future, Maitreya.
