Amjalika Gautam Buddha With Dorji

The dorji or dorje represents the thunderbolt of enlightenment, which ensures the internal happiness of a person. This statuette is a symbol of peace and represents the Akshobhya Buddha, a monk who had taken an oath never to be angry with anyone or never feel disgusted about anything or anyone s speech or action. The dorje or vajra he holds in his left hand symbolizes clarity of thought and intention. His strength and compassion helped him adhere to his vow and become enlightened.
