Vairocana stands as the Cosmic Buddha in Mahayana and Vajrayana traditions, embodying the universal, formless essence of enlightenment. Known as the Dharmakaya or truth body, Vairocana transcends individual identity, weaving through all existence. As the centerpiece of the Five Dhyani Buddhas, he reveals the pure, unified nature of ultimate reality and the profound wisdom that sees beyond illusion and duality. Linked to the wisdom of the Dharmadhatu, he represents an understanding of śūnyatā, where everything is connected and lacks inherent self. Often seen as the origin of all Buddhas, Vairocana shines with the clarity of awakened awareness and infinite compassion.
