About our Phurba
The Tibetan Phurba Ritual Dagger is a sacred implement made of iron and stands 23cm tall. The phurba is revered for its symbolic significance and ritualistic use in Tibetan Buddhist ceremonies, representing the essence of spiritual protection and transformation.
The phurba's design is based on old Buddhist iconography, with its three-sided blade signifying the severance of ignorance, attachment, and aversion. The dagger's handle frequently contains complex carvings or religious symbols, which serve as a focus point for meditation and ritual practice. When used with its stand, the Tibetan Phurba Ritual Dagger becomes a powerful symbol of spiritual empowerment and a conduit for channeling transforming energies in spiritual rituals and practices.
Introduction To The Tibet Ritual Dragger :
The ceremonial dagger (Sanskrit: Kila; Tibetan: phurba) is important for the expelling of evil and is thought to be especially effective in neutralizing the forces that obstruct 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, which meaning 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.
