5. Hand – It signifies support, co-operation, and unity. RIF through its various spiritual and philanthropic projects, is committed to raise the standard of living of every follower of Rishi tradition, but also to enjoy total success in every dimension of life. The hand also symbolizes dynamism, hard work, inspiration to perform actions etc. 

6. AUM and globe – Although every name represents some quality of Ishvara, however only AUM has been found to express all his Guna-Karma-Svabhava simultaneously. AUM is His most appropriate unique name. The position of AUM at the centre of hand signifies that Ishvara is at the core of every project, endeavour, planning etc. of RIF. The organization is inspired, powered and driven by the prescribed actions of Ishvara in Vedas and elaborated, supplemented and decodified by Rishis in their literature.

The globe at the top of AUM is symbolic that Ishvara is the base, foundation or the root of this planet (हिरण्यगर्भ: समवर्त्तताग्रे भूतस्य जात: पतिरेक आसीत्। स दाधार पृथिवीं द्यामुतेमां कस्मै देवाय हविषा विधेम॥) Like the root which supports and nourishes the shoots, leaves, flowers, fruits of the tree; similarly, it is Ishvara who supports and nourishes this planet and its habitants.    

7. Three extended fingers- Various concepts associated with Rishi tradition have a significant association with the number ‘3’. The three extended fingers represent some of them –

(i) Universal, Eternal, and All-encompassing principles.

(ii) Tapa, Svadhyaya & Dhyana.

(iii) Putreshana, Vitteshana & Lokeshana (Longing for one’s family, wealth and fame respectively)

(iv) Trigunas (Sattva, Rajas & Tamas)

(v) Tridoshas (Vata, Pitta & Kapha)

(vi) Rinatraya (Rishirina, Devarina & Pitririna)

(vii) Trimoorti (Brahma, Vishnu & Mahesh)

(viii) Three coverings (Mala, Vikshepa & Aavarana)

(ix) Trividha Duhkha/Taapatraya (Adhyatmika, Adhibhautika & Adhidaivika)

(x) Shariratraya (Sthula, Shukshma & Karana Sharira)

8. Jnana Mudra with divine light in Abhaya Mudra – Jnana-mudra is a symbolic representation of RIF’s commitment to re-connect the believers of Rishi tradition with the eternal source of wisdom, knowledge, and sciences – the ‘Vedas’. It also represents the dualities in human life like pain and pleasure, aggression, and peace etc.

Abhaya-mudra represents that everyone irrespective of their caste, creed, culture, and religious background can fearlessly tread the path of Rishis, for whom the entire planet is their home, and all the beings are their family members.

The divine light represents the union of Sun and Moon i.e., Pingala and Ida Nadis which corresponds to the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems in the physical body. The divine light is symbolic of radiance – Jnana. When the Sun and Moon in life are balanced, radiance (excellence/Jnana) in one’s life manifests, and Jnana leads to Mukti.
