The artwork vividly depicts Vajrasattva in his iconic form—seated in a yab-yum (union) posture, symbolizing the unity of wisdom and compassion. Adorned with a diamond scepter (vajra) and a bell (ghanta), which represent the indestructible and wisdom aspects of the deity, this Thangka reflects the deep symbolism of Vajrasattva's role as the Purification Deity and Bodhisattva of Purification. His consort, equally adorned in sacred attributes, complements the representation, emphasizing the harmonious balance of divine energies.
Vajrasattva (Tib. Dorje Sempa) is the vajrayana "Lord of the Mandalas." He is the union of the hundred peaceful and wrathful deities (who appear at the time of the bardo/intermediate state) and is the supreme deity of purification. In this thangka, Vajrasattva is in union with his consort, Vajratopa. This is an expression of the inseparable unity of wisdom and compassion.
Vajrasattva is a supreme Buddhist deity who embodies the purity of the enlightened mind. Vajrasattva means”Diamond Being”in Sanskrit.In Vajrayana Buddhism, the principle is purity and Purification. Vajrasattva embodies the capacity to eliminate spiritual impurities of all kinds,particularly neglected commitments toward one’s teacher and one’s own spiritual development.
Vajrasattva is a sambhogakaya manifestation;he unifies all the five Buddha families within himself in the same way that the white colour of his body unifies all the five colors.With his right hand he holds a Dorje to his heart,which signifies his indestructible essence.His left hand,holds a bell,which rests on his hip;this is an expression of his compassion.The hundred syllable mantra associated with him is used in all schools of Tibetan Buddhism for purification of the mind.
