Introduction To The Khatvanga :
Khatvanga is a stick with a skull on top, commonly used in Tantric rituals. It is also depicted in the oldest known Tantric images in the Indic world. It comprises a short stick topped by a single skull from which a vajra emerges.
The khatvanga held profound meaning in the Tantric Buddhist context. At its most basic level, it represents the opposite-gender counterpart of the equal or close deity who carries it.
Tsang Nyon Heruka and Padmasambhava are renowned for holding a khatvanga staff on their left shoulder.
