Introduction To Vajrasattva Statue:
Vajrasattva is 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 to practice on Buddha Vajrasattva?
The foundation of Vajrasattva practice is Bodhichitta and sanctuary. Afterward, visualize Vajrasattva seated one cubit over your head. A cubit measures from the middle finger tip to the elbow roughly the same as a forearm. Vajrasattva is the whole embodiment of Guru Padmasambhava, all lineage masters, and all enlightened beings, especially the Five Dhyani Buddhas.

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 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.
