He is the great tantric master who established Vajrayana in Tibet, subduing obstructive forces and transmitting profound teachings. His seated posture on a lotus symbolizes his transcendent nature, untouched by samsara, while the vajra and skull cup represent skillful means and wisdom. The khatvanga resting on his shoulder signifies the union of method and insight, and his penetrating gaze reflects the uncompromising power of awakened awareness.
