About Our Statue

The Bodhisattva of Purity, Vajrasattva Statue, stands 5.3” (13.5 cm) tall with a base width of 4.1” (10.5 cm) and weighs 0.47 kg. Handcrafted from a copper body, 24K gold gilding, gold and acrylic paintings. Vajrasattva, the deity of purification in Vajrayana Buddhism, is revered for cleansing negative karma and restoring spiritual clarity. This compact and radiant statue is perfect for personal practice, altar displays, or as a meaningful spiritual gift symbolizing inner purification, transformation, and enlightened awareness.

The Tibetan Buddhist Dorje Sempa, also known as Vajrasattva, is a revered deity associated with purification and spiritual cleansing. Depicted in a serene and meditative posture, he holds a vajra (a symbol of thunderbolts) in his right hand, symbolizing wisdom and the ultimate truth. In his left hand, he gracefully holds a bell, representing the wisdom of emptiness and the union of compassion and insight. The vajra and bell together signify the inseparable nature of method and wisdom, fundamental to Buddhist teachings. This sacred representation serves as a reminder of inner transformation and spiritual awakening in the Buddhist tradition.

Vajrasattva holds a unique place in Tibetan Buddhism, associated with the practice of purification. His hundred-syllable mantra is often recited by practitioners seeking to purify their karma, clear obstacles, and protect against negative influences. Vajrasattva’s teachings encourage followers to maintain moral integrity and develop spiritual insight.

Introduction To Vajrasattva:

Vajrasattva is typically regarded as the second patriarch in the Shingon Buddhist lineage, the first being Vairocana Buddha. According to Kukai's writings in Record of the Dharma Transmission, Nagarjuna encountered Vajrasatva in an iron tower in southern India, based on Amoghavajra's testimony. As recounted in the Mahavairocana Sutra, Vajrasatva inducted Nagarjuna into the abhiseka ceremony and entrusted him with the esoteric teachings he had gained from Vairocana Buddha. Kukai doesn't go into detail on Vajrasatva or his beginnings.

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 completely free of moisture and dust.
• Place it at the highest place on your altar after being consecrated by 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 with the bare hand objects can smudge the face, leaving scratches.
