Pada (Hindu mythology)
According to Hindu tradition and Hindu mythology, pada (that is, the foot) and padamudra (that is, the footprint), are considered very significant in several contexts. In Buddhist tradition, Buddha’s footprints symbolized his presence, and his image and iconography developed several centuries after he had passed away.
