Deity Introduction:

Vajrasattva, the Buddha of primordial purity is dedicated to the purification of negativities.  

Brief Description:

Vajrasattva resides on the level of the Sambogakaya. He sits on an eight-petalled lotus of purest white in full vajra posture. His body is brilliantly white and radiant like a snow mountain shined upon by a thousand suns. He is typically depicted holding a golden Vajra in his right hand at heart level, and a silver bell in his left hand, resting upon his left thigh. In our lineage, Vajrasattva is visualized with a consort.

Objective & Benefits of the Practice:

Vajrasattva practice is one the most important and fundamental practices of Vajrayana Buddhism, and is highly revered for its role and swiftness in purifying negative karmas and infractions of samayas.

Since time immemorial, in countless aeons we have accumulated countless negative karma. This is the main hindrances for one to realize one's Buddha nature and attain enlightenment in single life time.

Practiced correctly, the great blessing power of Vajrasattva is able to cleanse and purify all negativities including the subtle and most subtle obscurations of the body, speech and mind to the realization of primordially enlightened mind.
