Vairocana is regarded as the Primordial Buddha in Mahayana and Vajrayana Buddhism, representing the universal, formless essence of enlightenment. He embodies the Dharmakaya, the truth body, which transcends individual identity and permeates all existence. As the central figure among the Five Dhyani Buddhas, Vairocana symbolizes the pure, undivided nature of ultimate reality and the profound wisdom that perceives things as they truly are, free from duality or illusion. Associated with the wisdom of the Dharmadhatu, he reflects the understanding of śūnyatā (emptiness), where all phenomena are seen as interdependent and devoid of inherent self. Vairocana is often viewed as the source from which all Buddhas arise, embodying the illuminating clarity of awakened awareness and the boundless compassion that underlies the enlightened state.
