Description
Vajradhara is the celestial progenitor of the Kagyu order and of
mahamudra practice. Observing traditional iconographic descriptions for
the deity, he holds the bell and dorje, symbols of wisdom and
compassion. Vajradhara is richly adorned, with a crown, elaborate
pendant necklace, earrings which consist of large lotus discs, and a
flowing scarf which drapes the shoulders, looping at the elbow and
falling to the lotus throne. His eyes are held in a compassionate gaze.
The body sways elegantly to the right and the legs are drawn into an
adamantine posture. The full lower garment is drawn across the legs and
over the lotus seat, the hem finely engraved with floral borders.
