Radiant Serene Vajradhara Statue | Dorje Chang—Primordial Buddha
This radiant and serene Vajradhara statue measures 10.2”/26cm in height and 7.1”/18cm at the base, weighing 2.45 kg. Crafted from triple layer 24K gold gilding, detailed gold and acrylic paintings, and a copper body accented with hand-carved gemstones, it reflects the exceptional skill of Nepali artisans. This elegant piece is perfect for altars, meditation spaces, or as a meaningful spiritual gift.
Seated gracefully upon a lotus base shaped like a luminous moon disc, this Vajradhara statue embodies purity and transcendence, as the moon symbolizes clarity and the lotus represents spiritual awakening rising above the muddy waters of samsara. Crowning his head is a majestic five-pointed crown, each point studded with radiant gemstones, symbolizing the five wisdoms that transform the five poisons into enlightened awareness. His posture reveals the embracing mudra—a profound gesture of union—where his right hand firmly clasps a vajra, the indestructible thunderbolt representing unshakable compassion and skillful means, while his left hand holds a delicate bell, signifying wisdom and the feminine principle. Adorned with intricate ornaments, his calm and serene face reflects the perfect balance of compassion and wisdom, inviting practitioners into a state of deep meditation. Seated in vajrasana, the diamond posture that denotes stability and unwavering focus, Vajradhara is portrayed as the primordial Buddha who embodies the ultimate nature of enlightenment itself. This iconography tells a rich story of transformation, balance, and the path to awakening.
