Silver Pendant Dorje Bell

Product description Silver Pendant Dorje Bell

The name of the Buddhist symbol Dorje means "indestructible" in literal translation. According to Hindu mythology, the vajra (dorje) was the weapon of the Vedic god, a powerful combination of sword, mace and spear. It is one of the most important Buddhist symbols.

The combination of the bell and vajra is found in Tantric Buddhism, where the vajra represents the masculine element, male cosmic power and compassion, while the bell represents the feminine element, female cosmic power and the power of wisdom. Some deities are depicted holding each part in one hand to symbolize the combination of the power of compassion and wisdom.

Note: The length of the pendant is measured including the chain loop.
