The artisan created our
handmade Vajradhara statue with the jewelry and crown of a Bodhisattva.
Our handmade Vajradhara statue
sits in full lotus pose on a single lotus pedestal. Additionally, he holds the
vajra in his right hand and the ghanta bell in his left hand. Also, his hands
are crossed in the vajra or “diamond” mudra.
The vajra symbol in his right
hand is used by Hindu kings when they are engaged in battle. However, in
Buddhism the vajra is a symbol that represents the masculine aspect of
compassion or skillful means. The ghanta bell is the feminine symbol for
wisdom. It is the eternal union of compassion and wisdom which defines the
state of enlightenment. Also known as the “State of Vajradhara”.
This handmade Vajradhara statue
is a depiction of the primordial Buddha according to the Nyingma and Kagyu schools
of Tibetan Buddhism. Additionally, he is the Tantric form of Shakyamuni Buddha.
Vajradhara often appears in his Sambhogakaya form dressed elaborately in fine
robes, jewels and a bodhisattva crown. Our Vajradhara statue also depicts him
with the ushnisha topknot, elongated ears and the three necklines which are the
markings of high social class in ancient India.
This statue was handmade using the traditional
lost wax sculpting method. As a result, the important details of the statue
portray Vajradhara clearly. The Nepali sculptors have long been the preferred
source of the Tibetan monasteries for their Buddhist sculpture and ritual
items. Therefore, you can rest assured you have procured a monastic quality
statue.
