Vajrasattva Thangka Painting is hand painted Tibetan thangka depicts Vajrasattva, the main deity employed for purification by practitioners of all levels of tantra. Vajrasattva also goes by Dorje Sempa རྡོ་རྗེ་སེམས་དཔའ་, meaning “diamond being”. Vajrasattva meditation is the primary cleansing practice recommended by Vajrayana Buddhism. It is also used to purify any broken vows made by a disciple to their tantric master. Going beyond personal practice, the Vajrasattva mantra is believed to purify karma, bring peace, and instigate enlightened activity on a wider scale.
Vajrasattva Thangka Painting practice
Vajrasattva is white in color, symbolising his impeccable purity. He holds a vajra in his right hand, a weapon used as a ritual object, that symbolises the properties of a diamond (indestructibility), and a thunderbolt (irresistible force). In his left hand he holds a Ghanta, a bell of wisdom. The sound of the bell is thought to call to mind the empty nature of all things, helping us to become free of attachment and aversion, liberated from the painful cycle of birth and death. He is depicted in full lotus, or vajra, position. He wears the exquisite silk robes and jewelled ornaments of ancient Indian royalty.
