Gold Plated Vajrasattva Practice Statue
With the skillset and technique inherited from centuries, we have beautifully crafted the Vajrasattva Practice Statue in our studio. We have designed the statue in an accurate traditional iconography. We have portrayed the deity upholding a vajra with his right hand close to his chest and a bell on the other. We molded the body using the copper body and later gilded it using 24 Karat gold. The gilding of the gold gives the gold a stunning shine. We have hand-craved design patterns on the crown and the scarf. You can use this figurine for different Buddhist Rituals and daily practices.
This will be a perfect addition to your meditation shrine.

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.
