Vajrasattva, meaning 'Vajra Being,' is a significant Bodhisattva in Mahayana and Vajrayana Buddhism, primarily associated with purification practices and the cleansing of negative karma. He is often invoked for confession and to renew broken vows, acting as a spiritual guide who embodies the pristine and pure nature of the Buddha-mind itself. His meditation is central to preliminary practices (Ngöndro) in many Tibetan traditions, making him a powerful ally on the path to enlightenment.
