Introduction to Chakrasamvara 

A central figure in Vajrayana Buddhism, notably in the Kagyu, Sakya, and Gelug schools of Tibetan Buddhism, is Cakrasamvara, also known as Heruka. He is frequently seen in union with Vajravarahi, representing the harmony of knowledge and compassion. The ultimate tantric techniques are embodied in Cakrasamvara, who aids practitioners in overcoming the dualistic nature of everyday perception and achieving joyful enlightenment. Devotees can develop a profound insight into the interdependence of all things and ultimately attain the state of Buddhahood by incorporating the practice of Cakrasamvara into their spiritual path.

How do you take care of your statues?

• Place them at room temperature, avoiding direct sunlight.
• Make sure that the area where your statue is placed is entirely free of moisture and dust.
• Place it at the highest place on your altar after being consecrated by a Lama/monks. The best practice is to keep them covered inside a glass cabinet.
• Do not use your bare hands or any objects with a rough surface to wipe the face. Directly touching objects with the bare hand can smudge the face, leaving scratches.
