The Phurba Ritual Item for Shrine is a Tibetan dagger traditionally used in Tantric and Vajrayana Buddhist rites. This handcrafted ritual item is 28cm tall and 8cm wide, forged entirely of iron, and weighs 0.75kg, making it both substantial and deeply grounding in presence.
The Phurba, or ritual dagger, is valued for its symbolic ability to suppress bad energies, remove spiritual impediments, and anchor heavenly attention. Its three-edged blade symbolizes the transcendence of ignorance, desire, and hatred. This Phurba dagger is ideal for shrine placement, altar work, or contemplative rituals, serving as a conduit for protection, cleansing, and spiritual transformation.
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.
