Asia teaching

Asia teaching

[dot_recommends]

The five continent statues around the fountain at Järntorget each have different attributes. This is Asia teaching. Her right hand forms (what I suspect is a Western interpretation of) the Vitarka Mudra gesture that means teaching or discussion in Buddhism. The first finger and thumb form the Wheel of Law. Can you see the spider’s thread?

Here’s another picture of Asia from earlier in the year.
