In Tibetan Buddhism, the Vajrasattva is a highly esteemed figure who represents purity and the purging of negativity. Usually shown wearing white, he is holding a bell and a vajra, or thunderbolt, which stand for the combination of compassion and wisdom. In order to rid themselves of problems and bad karma, devotees partake in purifying exercises, including chanting mantras and carrying out rituals. In these practices, the mantra "Om Vajrasattva Hum" is essential since it is thought to cleanse the mind and spirit. The understanding of one's inherent purity and enlightened nature can be attained through inner transformation facilitated by meditating on Vajrasattva.
