Symbolism & Meaning:
The Right Hand (Tarjani Mudra): His right hand is raised in the Tarjani Mudra—a gesture of warning and protection against negativity. In this hand, he wields the Vajra (thunderbolt), symbolizing indestructible, diamond-like wisdom.
The Left Hand: His left hand holds a lasso, which is used symbolically to bind the "demons" of ignorance and delusion.
The Stance: His dynamic warrior pose, stepping to the right, embodies active, fearless compassion ready to defend the spiritual path. The halo of flames behind him signifies the burning away of worldly attachments.
Craftsmanship & Material: This statue is cast from durable copper and features a hand-applied, darkened antique finish to highlight the intricate details of the Vajrapani’s robes and serene facial expression. Please note: This is a hollow-cast copper 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.
Care Instructions: Avoid touching face of the statue. Dust gently with a dry microfiber cloth. Avoid water and metal polishes to preserve the antique finish.
Please Note: Because this item is hand-finished, slight variations in the patina and detailing may occur, making your statue entirely unique.
