VAJRAPANI

Vajrapani with the Vajra symbol is the spiritual son of Dhyani-Buddha Akshobhya, the ancestor of the Vajra family. – – It is said that when the Nagas (snake) appeared before Buddha to hear his teachings, Vajrapani was instructed by Tathagata to protect them from the attacks of their deadly enemies, the Garudas, by deceiving and fighting the Garudas. For this purpose, Vajrapani assumed a form with head, wings and claws, just like the Garudas themselves. Therefore, Vajrapani is considered the protector of the Nagas and the rain god. Buddhists from the north appeal to the rain when rain is needed or it falls too abundantly. – When represented, the Vajrapani stands or sits, usually wearing a lotus with the family symbol of Vajra on it. Sometimes he holds the vajra against his chest with one of his hands.
