Traditionally Hand Carved Vajrasattva Heruka Sculpture
We have exquisitely crafted the sculpture of Heruka Vajrasattva in a pure copper body and gilded it with genuine 24k gold. The crown is elegantly hand-painted with acrylic colors and plated with gold, which is mesmerizing. We have depicted a deity atop a moon disc lotus seat with a serene expression, carrying a vajra in his left hand and a bell in his right hand. You can use this statue in many auspicious Buddhist rituals, at your regular meditational or yoga activities, and even in different indoor activities. The ornaments are adorned and embellished with precious gold, which engulfs his presence. This art of Himalayan will be a tremendous gift from Nepal to a practitioner like you.

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.
