Vajrakilaya Consort Gilded In 24k Gold, Nyingma Yidam Statue
Vajrakilaya, also called Nyingma Yidam, has three heads, six arms, and two legs on the Vajrakilaya statue with his consort Khorlo Gyedunma. His two primary hands are wrapped around the consort's waist, which is the focal point of the figure. He wields the mystical phurba dagger, which has three blades and a magical moment, between his two hands. The phurba dagger's three blades remove one of the three fundamental impediments to spiritual awareness. Hatred, sensual desire and ignorance are the three obstacles. The three-pointed tip of the phurba blade also represents a point of public attention focused on the immense nothingness phenomena.
Vajrakilaya (Dorje Phurpa), also known as Vajrakumara (Dorje Zhonu, Youthful Vajra), is the wrathful Heruka deity who embodies the enlightened activity of all the Buddhas. Vajrakilaya is one of the eight Heruka deities of the Nyingma tantras. Vajrakilaya is also the personal meditational deity of Guru Padmasambhava. He practiced meditation on Vajrakilaya when many obstacles manifested before his display of attaining enlightenment. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Size: 9.05"/23cm (Height) x 7.48"/19cm (Base) Weight: 2.73 kg Material: 24K Gold Gilded, Copper Body, Acrylic Paintings
