About The Ritual Item :
This oxidized copper Vajra, also known as a Dorje, is 23cm tall and 6.5cm wide and weighs a substantial 0.75kg. Beautifully constructed with complex features, it is a potent symbol of indestructibility and spiritual strength in Vajrayana Buddhism. The Vajra is used in rituals and meditation to represent eternal truth and the union of wisdom and compassion.
They represent the Five Buddhas of the cosmic direction (Vairochana, Amitabha, Ratnasambhava, Amoghasiddhi, and Akshobhya) and the five kayas of the Anuttarayoga tantras. The Vajra is based on a stylized lotus stand, signifying purity emerging from the commonplace. It is ideal for spiritual practitioners, collectors, or as a centerpiece on a personal shrine. Its presence sharpens attention, protects against negativity, and connects the spiritual practitioner with Tibetan knowledge.
Introduction To Vajra:
The Tibetan Dorje represents the indestructibility and efficiency that overcomes all obstacles. Symbolically, Dorje Vajra destroys ignorance. In Tibetan Buddhist rituals, the vajra is often used with the bell, representing the masculine and the feminine, the ying and the yang, the effective action, and the compassion. The shape of the Tibetan Dorje is symmetrical, the two pyramidal heads representing samsara and Nirvana, which cancel each other out in its center thanks to the ring of Emptiness. Having a Dorje at home would have positive virtues against the various attacks we suffer.
