Do you refer to a sitting or a standing Buddha? Could it be related to the Usnisa Dharani? Or the vyakarana : Instead all the Buddhas will bestow prediction (Vyakarana) onto these beings who will never regress the path to Anuttara-samyak-samboddhi (complete enlightenment)." But no sign of a mudra on this page! http://www.geocities.com/kartean/UsnisaSutra.htm Joanna Kirkpatrick
