24 carat gilded copper 11 inch Vajrakilaya Statue . It was hand crafted in Nepal.


Vajrakilaya is a very unique deity in tantric Buddhism. His practice is most useful to clear obstacles out of the way to achieve specific goals especially those that are spiritual. Padmasambhava achieved the enlightened states by the practice of Yangdak Heruka the wrathful manifestation of Vajrasattva. He was very clear that it was only possible by first clearing his obstacles by the practice of Vajrakilaya. Today Vajrakilya is a main deity in the Sakya Tradition and practiced in all others too.

Vajrakilaya has three heads that are each crowned with five skulls, symbolic of transforming the Five Hindrances into the Five Virtues. He has six arms. In Vajrakilaya's three right hands except for the right front one held vajras with five and nine prongs. The right front one makes a mudra as granting boons with open palm. Vajrakilaya's three left hands hold a flaming triple wish fulfilling jewel or a tiratana, trident and a kila. He has human and elephant skins adorning his body.
