Vajradhara, revered as the Primordial Buddha and source of Vajrayana teachings, is depicted seated in the stable vajra posture, expressing profound meditation and complete awakened realization. His hands are crossed at the heart in the Vajradhara Mudra, holding the vajra (dorje) and bell (ghanta), which symbolize the inseparable union of skillful means (Upaya) and wisdom (Prajna). The vajra represents compassionate action and indestructible enlightened awareness, while the bell signifies the realization of emptiness and transcendent wisdom.
