U+1159E "ð‘–ž" Siddham Letter Tha is a specific glyph within the Siddham script, an abugida historically used in East Asia for writing Sanskrit and Buddhist texts, particularly in esoteric Buddhist traditions. This character represents the aspirated voiceless dental plosive consonant sound "tha" and is part of the Siddham block of Unicode, which was encoded to preserve and digitally represent the script's liturgical and calligraphic heritage. The letter's shape, with its distinctive curved and angular strokes, reflects the elegant style of Siddham inscriptions and manuscripts, where it often appears in mantras and sutras as a sacred phonetic element.
