Wrathful Bodhisattva Vajrapani Golden Handcrafted Statue
This Wrathful Bodhisattva Vajrapani Golden Handcrafted Statue is made of copper, covered with a triple layer of 24K gold gilding, and intricately carved with deeply engraved details that create a magnificent 3D-like effect. A powerful symbol of spiritual strength and fearless compassion, it is expertly crafted and richly decorated with 24K gold gilding, along with gold and acrylic paintings, reflecting exceptional artistry. The statue measures 15” (38 cm) in height and 10.8” (27.5 cm) across the base, and weighs 6.06 kg, making it a substantial and commanding piece. Designed by skilled Nepali artisans, it serves as a striking addition to meditation spaces, home altars, or spiritual collections focused on transformation and inner power.
This Vajrapani statue embodies the fierce and unshakable guardian of the Dharma. In his right hand, he wields a vajra—symbolizing indestructible spiritual power—while his left hand grasps a lasso, used to bind and overcome hostile forces. Behind him, a flaming halo ignites with intense energy, signifying his wrathful force that burns away ignorance and obstacles. He is shown in alidhasana, the dynamic stance of trampling posture, pressing down all forms of negativity beneath him. Vajrapani is crowned with five skulls, representing the transformation of the five inner poisons into enlightened wisdom. A serpent-like sash flows from his neck to his abdomen, and a third eye on his forehead indicates his awakened perception. Around his waist, he wears a tiger-skin garment—an emblem of his courage and command over primal forces.

Vajrapani is a revered figure in both Buddhist and Hindu traditions, known as the protector of the Dharma and a guardian of the Buddha's teachings. Originating in India, Vajrapani is often depicted as a wrathful deity, wielding a vajra (thunderbolt) to symbolize indestructible power and the ability to overcome obstacles. As a Bodhisattva, he embodies strength, courage, and the protection of wisdom, and he is often shown as a fierce, wrathful figure that removes spiritual hindrances and protects practitioners from hostile forces. His role is essential in both exoteric and esoteric practices, where he helps safeguard the path to enlightenment.
