Vajrapani, whose name means "Vajra in Hand," is one of the earliest Bodhisattvas in Mahayana Buddhism. He is a member of the trinity of Bodhisattvas that includes Avalokiteshvara (compassion) and Manjushri (wisdom). As the embodiment of the Buddha's power, Vajrapani's role is to protect the teachings and remove inner and outer obstacles for practitioners on the path to enlightenment.
