Tibetan Thunderbolt (Dorje) Indestructible Diamond
Tibetan Dorje Thunderbolt- Indescribable Diamond
Tibetan Buddhism, full of symbols and ritual objects, extensive attention has been given to the meaning of the word Dorje, in Tibetan, or Vajra, in Sanskrit: the lightning, or diamond, that destroys all kinds of ignorance, being itself indestructible, principle of spiritual and mental liberation, on which the philosophy of Tibet is based. The Dorje represents the firmness of spirit and the achievement of high transcendental virtues, able to drive towards the Truth, destroying unawareness.Made like a scepter, can be single or double: in its quality of lightning, typical of many Eastern civilizations, is compared to the meteoric hammer of Thor, and to the thunderbolt and scepter of Zeus; indestructible weapon for the wrathful deities, spiritual power for the benevolent gods.
In the iconography and rituals of Tibetan Buddhism the Dorje is always accompanied by a Bell, and together these two symbols represent the opposites that coexist: the bell is in fact a symbol of the feminine side, of the diamond, of the physical body, while the Dorje is the masculine side, thunder and mind. During the Buddhist rites the Dorje is held in the right hand, while the bell in the left one.The Dorje is often used in meditation rituals as a symbol of the union between the Relative Truth, represented by the experiences of everyday life, and the Absolute Truth, a state of being that we live in unity with nature and all that surrounds us. When during meditation both are used, the aim is to balance the masculine and feminine side of reality, and to achieve spiritual awareness.
