Description
Pretty natural wood and metal artefact representing a double dorje that will attractively adorn a door or wall. The symbolism of the Vajra (double Vajra) represents emptiness, particularly emphasizing its indestructibility and eternal qualities. For this reason, it is often displayed in a brocade hanging in front of the throne of great lamas, recalling the eternal nature of the enlightened mind as much as that of education. It also symbolizes the activity of emptiness that destroys all negativity: in this perspective, it is associated with the fifth Buddha family, the "karma" family. This is also why the four sets of five branches are interpreted as symbolizing the four types of awakening activities: peace, growth, power, violence.
