Samantabhadra sits in the serene dhyāna mudrā, a gesture of deep meditation and spiritual harmony, while embracing his consort. She holds a skullcup (kapāla), symbolizing the transformation of illusions into insight, and a kartika, a ritual knife that severs ego and ignorance. Both wear ushnishas, marks of their enlightened nature, and rest upon a moon disc lotus base, representing purity and the blossoming of spiritual awakening beyond worldly attachments.
