Description
Vajrasattva statue, made of metal with oil-rubbed bronze finish.
Vajrasattva: Skt. Vajrasattva; Tib. རྡོ་རྗེ་སེམས་དཔའ་ Dorje Sempa, he embodies the Hundred Peaceful and Wrathful Deities, and the Five Buddha Families. The practice of Vajrasattva and the recitation of his mantra are effective for the purification of negative actions. As is says in the Tantra of Immaculate Confession, “The Hundred Syllable Mantra is the quintessence of the mind of all the Sugatas. Its purifies all violations, all breaches, all conceptual obscurations.” Also, the vow made by Vajrasattva as bodhisattva states, “May all sentient beings, by merely hearing, remembering, or uttering my name in prayer, be purified of their karmic negativity, and be liberated from the depths of cyclic existence.”
