{"product_id":"brass-vajra","title":"Brass Vajra","description":"\u003cp\u003eA vajra in cast brass, five prongs closed at each end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Tibetan practice the vajra is held in the right hand and the bell in the left: method and wisdom, the pair that has to work together. The form is specific. A sphere at the centre for the nature of things, a lotus opening on either side, and the prongs curving out of makara mouths to close on a central spike, so that the whole thing is one unbroken shape. Closed prongs, as here, are the peaceful form; the open-pronged vajra belongs to wrathful practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe brass is darkened in the recesses so the relief reads from across the room. It is bought for a home altar most often, and sometimes for a desk, where it sits as a paperweight with a meaning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlacement:\u003c\/strong\u003e altar or desk, lying flat, with a bell beside it if you keep one.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Serenity Art \u0026 Homes","offers":[{"title":"Fine","offer_id":49897090810008,"sku":null,"price":74.8,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Standard","offer_id":49897090842776,"sku":null,"price":74.8,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0528\/5517\/7368\/files\/brass-vajra-hero.png?v=1789362732","url":"https:\/\/www.serenityartnhome.com\/products\/brass-vajra","provider":"Serenity Art \u0026 Home","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
