Description
The Ashtamangala (Sanskrit: अष्टमङ्गल, romanized: Aṣṭamaṅgala ) is a sacred suite of Eight Auspicious Signs featured in a number of Indian religions such as Hinduism, Jainism, and Buddhism. The symbols or "symbolic attributes" (Tibetan: ཕྱག་མཚན་, THL: chaktsen ) are yidam and teaching tools. Not only do these attributes (or energetic signatures) point to qualities of enlightened mindstream, but they are the investiture that ornaments these enlightened "qualities" (Sanskrit: guṇa ; Tibetan: ཡོན་ཏན་, THL: yönten ). Many cultural enumerations and variations of the Ashtamangala are extant.
