The “vajra” is a type of multi-pronged, double-ended scepter, like the example above, and it is one of the most common implements of Tibetan Buddhist ritual. The worn details here attest to its frequent usage. The vajra symbolizes destructibility and clarity. Two qualities of any enlightened mind according to Tibetan Buddhism.
Vajras were often paired with bells, and together, the two ritual objects represent complete enlightenment.
