## Who Is Vajradhara?

Vajradhara is a primordial Buddha in Tibetan Buddhism. Several traditions, including Kagyu and Gelug, honor him as the source of their teachings.

His name means the holder of the vajra. The vajra is a ritual thunderbolt that stands for strength and method. A bell often stands for wisdom.

Reaching the state of Vajradhara signifies full realization in Buddhism. It means enlightenment joined with deep wisdom.

Tibetan painters often show him in deep blue. He sits as a still, calm figure, and the color suggests the sky and the vastness of mind.

## The Crossed Hands

Images of Vajradhara often show the arms crossed at the chest, holding a vajra and a bell. The crossing joins method and wisdom in one gesture.

This figurine uses the **crossed wrists mudra** over the heart. Our supplier describes it as the unity of compassion and wisdom at the highest level.

A mudra is a set hand gesture with a fixed meaning. Viewers who know the gesture can read the figure at a glance.

The hands cross in front of the heart, so the figure turns inward. The viewer is invited to do the same.

## Nepali Style and Display
