Himalayan Chakrasambhara Statue | Tantric Deity for Esoteric Practice
Chakrasambhara Statue stands 10.2 inches (26 cm) tall with a base width of 6.3 inches (16 cm), weighing approximately 2.05 kilograms. Made from oxidized copper, the statue features fine detailing that captures the powerful and transformative essence of this important tantric deity. Chakrasamvara, a central figure in Vajrayana Buddhism, represents the union of wisdom and compassion, often depicted in a dynamic embrace with his consort. This sacred statue is ideal for tantric practice, meditation spaces, or a profound addition to any Buddhist altar—a beautiful expression of Nepalese spiritual artistry and esoteric symbolism.
Chakrasamvara is most often portrayed in yab-yum (father-mother) union with his consort, Vajravarahi (also known as Vajrayogini). This embrace signifies the unity of compassion (method) and wisdom (realization), a core concept in tantric practice. He is shown with twelve arms, each holding ritual implements such as a curved knife, staff, trident (khatvanga), lasso, and severed head, symbolizing his complete mastery over tantric methods and the destruction of ignorance and obstacles. The principal hands of Chakrasamvara hold a vajra (thunderbolt) and a bell, while embracing Vajravarahi, representing the union of skillful means and wisdom. Chakrasambhara is surrounded by a radiant red halo that symbolizes intense spiritual energy and the transformative power of tantric practice.
