Natyashastra
संयुक्ता संयोगे कार्या विश्लेषिता वियोगे च । कलहे स्वस्तिकयुपतां परस्परोत्पीडिता बन्धे ॥ ७४॥
When both Sūcīmukha hands are joined together, they should be used to represent union. When separated, they signify separation. For a quarrel, the hands should be crossed in the Svastika gesture. To depict bondage, they should press against each other.
