Vajradhara
is a
representation of the
Adi-Buddha,
usually crowned and with jewels. In this statue, Vajradhara, the
primordial
Buddha,
is depicted with his hands crossed in front of his chest whilst holding a
vajra
in
one hand and a typical type of bell, known as
a
Vajraghanta (fig.),
in the other hand. Vajradhara is in some ways similar to
Vajrasattva (fig.). |
