Source: archive.org: Isvara Samhita Vol 5Gadāmudrā (गदामुद्रा) or simply Gadā is the name of a mudrā described in the Īśvarasaṃhitā 35-36.—Accordingly, “forming the fist with the right hand upon the thumb of the left thumb it shall be shown auspicious Kaumodakī. It is known gadāmudrā, which would crush an army of defects”. Mūdra (eg., Gadāmudrā) is so called as it gives joy to the tattvas in the form of karman for those who offer spotless worship, drive out the defects which move about within and without and sealing up of what is done.
