Seal of Goa
The Emblem of Goa is the official emblem of the Government of Goa, a state of India.[1] The seal depicts a "Vriksha Deep", a type of diva lamp, at its centre. The lamp represents enlightenment through knowledge and is surrounded by a stylized design of coconut leaves which represent the bountiful and beautiful aspects of Goa. A Sanskrit shloka appears above the lamp and can be translated as "may everyone see goodness, may none suffer any pain"(Devnagari: सर्वे भद्राणि पश्यन्तु मा कश्चिद् दुःखमाप्नुयात्; Sarve bhadrani pashyantu ma kashchid duhkhamapnuyat). The crest is formed by the National Emblem of India, the Lions of Sarnath, and the arms are supported by two open hands.
