The symbol of the DOUBLE DORJE, also called VISVAVAJRA or the VAJRA CROSS,
whether vertical or in X-form, is considered an emblem of protection. The vishvavajra, (vishwa or
vishva is Sanskrit for world with the connotation of "the universe as we experience it," and
it means the double dorje or crossed dorjes. It stands for the stability or foundation of the physical
world. This is a mark often used as a seal or stamp and may be found impressed or incised on the plate
at the base of a statue that protects and keeps prayers/relics inside. It is also the emblem of
Buddhist deities whose influence encourages immoveable determination.
This powerful symbol is also associated with Amogasiddhi (Tibetan: Donyo drupa), who is the
Karma family buddha. His name means Unfailing Accomplishment. His activity transmutes the klesha
(stain, or imperfection) of jealousy. His activity is the subtle one of diminishing attachment.
He is green in color, his left hand rests in his lap in the mudra of equanimity and his
right at chest level palm outwards in the "granting protection" or "not to fear" gesture.
His consort is Damtsig Dolma, Green Tara.
The dimensions are approx 1.2" (3 cm)wide
