Item: Vajrapani (Bodhisattva & Buddhist Deity)

Vajrapani, Krodha (Tibetan: chag na dor je, drag po. English: the Wrathful Vajra Holder).

Sanskrit: Vajrapani Tibetan: chag na dor je

Dark blue in colour, fearsome in expression, he has one face and two hands holding upraised a gold vajra scepter in the right hand. The left held to the heart performs a wrathful gesture. Standing atop a sun disc and lotus seat he is surrounded by the orange flames of pristine awareness. At the top center is the Buddha Amitabha with Padmapani Avalokiteshvara on the left and Manjushri on the right.
