About The Ritual Item :

This Tibetan Buddhist phurba dagger is a sacred ritual tool, hand-carved from ethically sourced buffalo bone. Standing at 30.5 cm in height, 5 cm in width, and weighing 0.27 kg, it features wrathful deity imagery and intricate motifs. The triple-bladed tip and fierce expressions emphasize its role in clearing negativity and anchoring spiritual energy.

Within Vajrayana Buddhism, the phurba (also known as a kila) serves as a potent symbol representing the eradication of the three fundamental afflictive mental states: ignorance, attachment, and aversion. It is linked to wrathful deities, such as Vajrakilaya, symbolizing transformative power over negative energies and spiritual cleansing. Carved from bone, it signifies impermanence and the process of spiritual transformation. Ideal for altar work, ceremonies, energy clearing, or meditation, this artifact reflects careful artistry and intention, serving as a sacred symbol of protection and awakening.

Introduction To The Phurba :

The ceremonial dagger (Sanskrit: Kila; Tibetan: phurba) is essential for expelling evil and is considered particularly effective in neutralizing the forces obstructing Tantric Buddhist practice. It has ancient origins, first appearing in the Indian Rig Veda as the core blade of the vajra used by Indra to destroy the primordial cosmic snake Vritra. Kila, derived from 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.
