Religious: Buddhist

Religions have existed from the dawn of human history, and almost always include unique iconography, or symbolic representations of the stories told within the religion, examples of which are often worn as adornment to indicate adherence to that particular religion's belief structure.

Chinaculture.com tells us, "The eight auspicious symbols of Tibetan Buddhism consist of: a parasol, a pair of fishes, a treasure vase, a lotus, a white-spiraling conch shell, an endless knot, a victory banner, and a golden wheel.

History.com tells us that, "Buddhism is a faith that was founded by Siddhartha Gautama (“the Buddha”) more than 2,500 years ago in India."

Merriam-Webster tells us that, "Buddhism is a religion of eastern and central Asia growing out of the teaching of Siddhārtha Gautama that suffering is inherent in life and that one can be liberated from it by cultivating wisdom, virtue, and concentration."
