Vajrapani is an enlightened Buddhist deity, or Bodhisattva, who embodies the infinite energy of the liberated mind. Through recitation of the mantra “Om Vajrapani Hum”, one can learn to access the boundless and fiery energy which Vajrapani emits. Therefore, a mantra is an instrument of the mind.
He is believed to be a manifestation of the Buddha Aksobhya and is often associated with Indra, the Hindu God of Rain and War who is also depicted holding a Lightning Bolt or Vajra. As a protector of Buddha, Vajrapani symbolizes the Power of Buddhahood and all Buddhas.
