Statue of Vajrapani, Wrathful Protector of Dharma | Nepali Handmade Icon
Vajrapani, Wrathful Protector of Dharma, measures 32.5 cm in height with a 23 cm wide base and weighs 4.41 kg. Meticulously sculpted from oxidized copper, it features a stunning silver-plated finish that highlights the intricate details of its sacred form. The antique aesthetic evokes timeless reverence, making it a powerful and graceful addition to your altar, meditation space, or spiritual art collection.
Vajrapani’s fierce gaze, sharp fangs, and blazing eyebrows tell a story of unwavering resolve to banish ignorance and shield spiritual seekers. His blue hue reflects his vajra essence—unbreakable and wise, turning anger into insight. Adorned with bone ornaments and skull garlands, he reminds us of life’s impermanence and the triumph over ego and fear. In his right hand, a vajra pulses with the power to shatter ignorance, while his left wields a lasso to capture harmful forces. Poised like a warrior, one leg forward, the other back, he stands ready to defend the Dharma. Encircled by a fiery halo of purification, Vajrapani’s Bhutadamara Mudra—wrists crossed, palms outward, little fingers linked—mimics Garuda’s wings, a fierce yet protective gesture to tame spirits and dispel negativity.
