About The Ritual Item :
Phurba with Deity Holding Vajra is a formidable Tantric ceremonial dagger made of iron. Standing 29cm tall, 14cm wide, and weighing a substantial 2.10kg, this Phurba is a visual and energy focal point for any serious practitioner's altar or shrine setting. A wrathful god holding a Vajra represents the synthesis of cutting through illusion (Phurba) and indestructible wisdom (Vajra).
This Phurba dagger, traditionally employed in Vajrayana Buddhist rituals, is thought to subdue negative energies, purify settings, and safeguard practitioners on their spiritual journey. The craftsmanship demonstrates a strong respect for the sacred, with the deity figure acting as both a guardian and an energy anchor. Whether employed in ritual, meditation or as a protective altar tool, this Phurba is a rare and potent spiritual treasure.
Introduction To The Phurba :
The ceremonial dagger (Sanskrit: Kila; Tibetan: phurba) is essential for expelling evil and is considered especially effective in neutralizing the forces obstructing Tantric Buddhist practice. It has ancient origins, first appearing in the Indian Rg Veda as the core blade of the vajra used by Indra to destroy the primordial cosmic snake Vritra. Kila, a peg or stake in Sanskrit, was most likely associated with Vedic sacrifices. Meditation on the Vajrakila Tantra, an early Indian scripture first promoted in Tibet in the eighth century by Padmasambhava, one of the founding teachers of Tibetan Buddhism, is used to invoke the three-headed Vajrakila Buddha.
