- The Eyes of Buddha (also called Buddha eyes or Wisdom eyes) is a symbol used in Buddhist art. The symbol depicts two half-closed eyes, a style sometimes referred to as the Adamantine View (Sanskrit: Vajradrsti). In between and slightly above the eyes is a circle or spiral which represents the urna, one of the thirty-two characteristics of a great man (Sanskrit: Mahāpuruṣalakṣaṇa) in Buddhism. Directly below the urna is a curly symbol stylized as १, which represents the number one in Devanagari numerals. The curly symbol, which represents either a nose or a divine fire emanating from the urna above, symbolizes unity. The Eyes of Buddha symbol represents the all-seeing eyes of the Buddha, or sometimes more specifically represents the eyes of the Ādibuddha. (en)
