Vajra Dorje

Vajra, a term derived from Sanskrit, shares a connection to the Tibetan word dorje. Its meaning is reminiscent of the word for diamond and bears a resemblance to the powerful weapon wielded by Indra, a deity in Vedic mythology, and Zeus, the king of the gods in Greek mythology. This weapon, known for its ability to vanquish both internal and external foes, is often associated with thunderbolts.
