bhumisparsa
(cf. bhusparsa); The attitude of ‘touching the earth’, calling her to witness of virtue of Gautama. In this hand-pose, the right hand is placed over the right knee.
The hand, with palm inward, all fingers down, touches the lotus seat below. It is the characteristic pose of Gautama and Aksobhya, one of the five Dhyāni Buddhas.
