This mudra ( मुद्रा ) helps focus attention -- a gesture of remembering.


Shikata ga nai (仕方がない), pronounced [ɕi̥kata ɡa nai], is a Japanese phrase meaning "it can't be helped" or "nothing can be done about it" -- the same as Shō ga nai (しょうがない), pronounced [ɕoː ɡa nai]

My username is derived from Tenmei (天明), which was a Japanese era name (年号, nengō, lit. "year name") during the years from 1781 through 1789. The new era was designated to mark the enthronement of Emperor Kōkaku (光格天皇, Kōkaku-tennō) in 1781.-- Titsingh, Isaac. (1834). Annales des empereurs du japon, pp. 420-421.
