Unicode Version 17.0
U+0FC6 "࿆" Tibetan Symbol Padma Gdan is a combining diacritical mark used in the Tibetan script, specifically within certain religious and textual contexts to represent a lotus seat or pedestal, often depicted as a floral base associated with deities and enlightened beings. This symbol is applied as a superscript or subscript attachment to base characters in Tibetan manuscripts and ritual writings, where it visually signifies a sacred foundation or support, reflecting the deep symbolic role of the lotus in Tibetan Buddhism as a symbol of purity and spiritual emergence. Its usage is relatively specialized, appearing in liturgical texts and iconographic notations rather than in everyday Tibetan writing, and it requires appropriate software support for proper rendering in digital environments.
