Qing Dynasty Tibetan-style fully gold-plated Vajra Guardian statue. The Vajra Guardian, also known as 'fully pledged Vajra' or 'lay practitioner of Vajra,' is one of the three fundamental guardians in the Nyingma tradition and a principal guardian in Gelugpa esoteric practices. He belongs to worldly protectors. Statues of the Vajra Guardian are exceedingly rare; it is uncommon to encounter one even over the course of several years, though the theme is more commonly seen in thangka paintings.
This particular statue of the Vajra Guardian is not large in size but falls outside the category of portable Buddhist artifacts. The Vajra Guardian primarily upholds esoteric practices, thus revered in both upper and lower esoteric colleges of the Gelugpa tradition. Additionally, he is also regarded as a deity of wealth, possessing the efficacy of generating prosperity.
The present statue depicts the Vajra Guardian in a wrathful form, mounted on a white lion, adorned in ceremonial attire, and wearing a felt hat. With his right hand wielding a Vajra sword and his left hand holding a dripping blood heart, the statue exudes a powerful presence. Entirely coated in gold, though not sizable, the statue is of high quality.
This statue originates from the personal collection of a senior practitioner. Despite having passed through the hands of private Tibetan households over the years, its base remains sealed with vermilion, indicating its exceptional provenance.
