Dorje Sempa Statue Vajrasattva

Here you can see an impressive, large and very finely crafted statue from Nepal's workshops.

Such beautiful and excellent quality statues are mostly made for the surrounding monasteries (Buddhist temples) or Tibetan monasteries and remain there forever to serve as an object of devotion for the practicing monks and lamas.
The statue itself is in that Manufacturing process of the "lost form" and is masterfully done.
In this work, several artists collaborated to create this beautiful Dorje Sempa deity.

It takes several months to make such a statue and it is 100% handmade and 100% unique.
It is "fire-gilded all over" and the expression of the face is very impressive. 


The engravings on the ornaments and on the clothing are exceptionally deep and very finely worked out. (this determines the quality and therefore the value of a statue)

The statue can be filled from below, as is Tibetan tradition.

Vajrasattva ('Vajra beings', Tib. Dorje Sempa) is an Adi or primordial Buddha, a transcendent, beginningless, enlightened being who is considered the embodiment of absolute reality. As such, he is also the essence of the five great transcendent Buddhas (also: Dhyani Buddhas) Vairocana, Akshobhya, Amitabha, Ratnasambhava and Amogasiddhi and is therefore often referred to as the “sixth Buddha family”.

He is of bright white body color, wearing the Sambhogakaya's jewelry of precious jewel ornaments and silk robes. In his right hand he holds the Vajra at his heart (symbol of the male principle of compassion) and in his left hand the bell (female symbol of the wisdom of emptiness) as a symbol of the union of opposites. For this reason he is also often depicted in union (yab/yum, "father/mother") with his mate. Vajrasattva is particularly considered to be the Buddha who embodies the purity of all Buddhas; its practice is therefore one of the most important tantric purification practices, central to all Tibetan Buddhist schools.

Before I was born who was I?
After I am born who am I?
Respect yourself, everybody will respect you.
Understand yourself, everybody will understand you.
There are mirrors all around you, strive to see and understand yourself.
Strive to have the heart of a Buddha.
Stop doing bad thinks, only do good.
Do whatever you can to help others.
Help yourself, and you help the world.
Amituofo Sifu Shi Yan Ming
