Vajrapani is a revered figure in both Buddhist and Hindu traditions, known as the protector of the Dharma and a guardian of the Buddha's teachings. Originating in India, Vajrapani is often depicted as a wrathful deity, wielding a vajra (thunderbolt) to symbolize indestructible power and the ability to overcome obstacles. As a Bodhisattva, he embodies strength, courage, and the protection of wisdom, and he is often shown as a fierce, wrathful figure that removes spiritual hindrances and protects practitioners from hostile forces. His role is essential in both exoteric and esoteric practices, where he helps safeguard the path to enlightenment.
