There are several fixed patterns of inso in a Buddhist statue existing in a Buddhist temple or the like, which include the followings: one formed by hands clasped in the lap, like that of Kamakura Daibutsu (the Great Buddha of Kamakura); one formed by the right hand being raised and the left hand resting on the lap, like that of the huge image of Rushana Buddha of Todai-ji Temple.
寺院その他で見かける仏像には、鎌倉大仏のように両手を膝の上で組み合わせるもの、東大寺盧舎那仏像のように右手を挙げ、左手を下げるものなど、両手の示すポーズ、すなわち印相には決まったパターンがある。
