Beliefs in 108 Auspicious Symbols in the Lord Buddha’s Footprint
The beliefs in 108 auspicious symbols came from the ancient scripture of Sri Lanka, indicating that they were spotted by the Brahmins on the soles of Prince Siddhartha 5 days after he was born. There were, however, no such footprints created in Sri Lanka. They came later in Burma. lt was said that the 108 auspicious symbols were developed from the Eight Auspicious Symbols.
