BUDDHA-PĀDA—The sacred footprint of Buddha, found in many places in Northern India, Indo-China, Siam and other places: analogous to the Ratna-pāda of Samantakūṭa of Ceylon; but the Buddhapāda of Sukhodaya in Siam is more elaborate and artistic; on the centre of the footprints are engraved two wheels (*chakra*), each containing six circles wherein are marked 108 signs. These signs are stated to represent the past, present, and future universe.
