On the back of the shell, the Unalome symbol. The Unalome is the, ever decreasing spiral that represents our daily, earthly distractions. As we grow older and wiser, the spiral gradually decreases to become a straight line pointing upwards. This represents the path of truth to nirvana, to enlightenment. It is super detailed.
