About Vajra & Bell

An essential part of Buddhist and Vajrayana ceremonies, this Tibetan Vajra & Bell set is a stunning symbol of compassion and knowledge. This ritual set has deep spiritual roots and is handcrafted from 7-metal bronze, a magical combination of copper, tin, mercury, gold, silver, lead, and iron. The Vajra (3.5 cm in height, 14 cm in breadth, 0.22 kg) symbolizes indestructibility and spiritual strength, while the bell (19 cm in height, 10.5 cm in width, 0.42 kg) stands for the voice of Dharma and wisdom. This combination weighs 0.65 kg and is perfect for ceremonial offerings, chanting, and meditation.

In Tibetan Buddhism, the bell (Ghanta) produces a clean sound that is said to remove negativity and improve attention, whereas the Vajra (Dorje) represents enlightenment and heavenly power. Combined, they balance masculine and feminine energies, bringing practitioners toward inner peace and spiritual development. Whether utilized in daily rituals, prayer sessions, or as a significant altarpiece, this magnificent handcrafted set is a must-have Buddhist artifact for practitioners and collectors.

Introduction to Vajra & Bell

The vajra, which means "diamond" or "lightning" in Sanskrit, is an important symbol and ritual instrument in Hinduism and more in the Buddhist tradition Vajrayana ("diamond way") to which it gave its name.
Tibetan Dorje represents the indestructibility and efficiency that overcome all obstacles. Symbolically, Dorje Vajra destroys ignorance. In Tibetan Buddhist rituals, the vajra is often used with the bell, representing the masculine and the feminine, the ying and the yang, the effective action, and the compassion. The shape of the Tibetan Dorje is symmetrical, the two pyramidal heads representing samsara and Nirvana, which cancel each other out in its center thanks to the ring of Emptiness. Having a Dorje at home would have positive virtues against the various attacks we suffer.
The bell or drills is the feminine aspect of the perfection of wisdom, which directly realizes emptiness.
The Vajra or Dorje represents the male aspect as a method or skillful means, the indestructible nature of the absolute. Together they symbolize the blessing mandala of a practitioner’s main yidam deity.
