About Our Product
This handcrafted Vajrasattva statue measures 16 cm tall and 13 cm wide, weighing 0.6 kilograms. It features a copper body with 24K gold plating and acrylic color. Created by skilled Nepali artisans, this piece embodies the serene presence of Vajrasattva, making it ideal for meditation spaces, altars, or spiritual collections.
Vajrasattva is depicted seated in the vajrasana pose (diamond posture) atop a moon disc lotus base, symbolizing purity and spiritual awakening. He holds a vajra in his right hand, representing indestructible compassion, and a bell in his left hand, symbolizing emptiness (śūnyatā). Adorned with a five-pointed crown, he embodies the enlightened qualities of the Five Dhyani Buddhas. His serene expression and meditative posture reflect inner peace and a capacity for transformation through purification practices.
Introduction of Vajrasattva
Vajrasattva is typically regarded as the second patriarch in the Shingon Buddhist lineage, preceded by Vairocana Buddha. According to Kukai's writings in the Record of the Dharma Transmission, Nagarjuna encountered Vajrasatva in an iron tower in southern India, as Amoghavajra attests. As recounted in the Mahavairocana Sutra, Vajrasatva inducted Nagarjuna into the abhiseka ceremony and entrusted him with the esoteric teachings he had gained from Vairocana Buddha. Kukai doesn't provide detailed information on Vajrasatva or his origins.
