Introduction To The 8 Auspicious Symbols :
The eight auspicious symbols are identified as framing the body of the Buddha in Tibetan tradition, with the parasol representing his head, the golden fishes his eyes, the lotus his tongue, the treasure vase his neck, the wheel his feet, the victory banner his body, the conch his speck, and the endless knot his mind.
In Hinduism, they are known as Ashthamangala, which also has significant spiritual significance. Ashtamangala is widely utilized at the entryway above the door by Hindu practitioners to guard against harmful spirits and attract positive energy at home, and for the same purpose at work or office space.
