The corresponding sage is Kumaraswamy, the race is Siddha, the colour is golden and the protective deity is Lakshmi or Padma.
Technique: Place the ring finger in the centre of the palm and separate the other fingers. In a variant of this mudra, the tips of all the remaining fingers touch each other.
