Our 5.5 inch Tibetan Vajra was handcrafted in Patan, Nepal using traditional methods. In addition, the item is gold gilded in 24K gold. In further benefit, it is embedded with semiprecious stones such as Turquoise and Red Coral. Turquoise is a combination of blue and green. Indeed, blue signifies the purity of the Buddhas and green symbolizes their readiness to act. While meditation on the color red can eliminate craving and desire. This Tibetan vajra is handmade using the lost wax sculpting method. Lost wax sculpting brings out the fine details of traditional craftsmanship used in Nepal.
The vajra is the Buddhist symbol for the male attribute of compassion which is an essential component of enlightenment. In conjunction with the Ghanti (Bell), the female attribute of wisdom, the vajra is used for special Buddhist ceremonies such as consecration.
Use our Tibetan Vajra as inspiration for your personal practice. The vajra represents the indestructible virtue of the Buddhist path to enlightenment. Similar to the diamond, real practitioners will never be deterred. For serious practitioners we can also arrange for the item to be consecrated in Nepal before Shipping. Contact me for details by leaving a note during checkout and I will follow up with additional information involving consecration services.
