Symbolism & Meaning:

The Right Hand (Method): Held delicately at his heart, his right hand grasps a Vajra (or Dorje in Tibetan). This thunderbolt scepter symbolizes the indestructible nature of truth and the active, compassionate method required to attain enlightenment.

The Left Hand (Wisdom): Resting gracefully at his left hip, his left hand holds a Ghanta (ritual bell) facing upward. The bell represents the feminine principle of the perfection of wisdom, specifically the realization of emptiness.

The Union: Together, the Vajra at the heart and the Bell at the hip symbolize the perfect, inseparable union of Compassion (method) and Wisdom—the core requirement for achieving the enlightened state.

Craftsmanship & Material: This statue is machine casted from durable Brass. Please note: This is a hollow-cast brass item, making it sturdy yet light enough to easily move.

Ideal Placement: Traditionally placed inside a Choesham in a pooja hall or a meditation space, ideally at eye level or higher, and never directly on the floor.
