On dZi beads, the Vajra is depicted in the form of rhombuses, which symbolize the diamond.

Vajra is a weapon of the Gods, it was known even before the advent of Buddhism.

This weapon was made from the diamond bones of the sage Dadhichi for the god Indra in pre-Buddhist times.

According to the scriptures, Indra passed on the Vajra - the unique weapon of the devas to Buddha Shakyamuni when he attained enlightenment. Buddha, having accepted the weapon, bent the prongs of the Vajra and turned it into a scepter, so to speak, “buried the ax of war”, making it clear that violence against living beings is unacceptable under any pretext, under any circumstances, and for any noblest purposes.

 

Since then, the Vajra has been a weapon to fight internal enemies. Serves to dispel the clouds of ignorance and the fog of stupidity. Symbol, which leads to wisdom and clarity of mind, helps to get rid of vicious addictions and anger.

The literal translation of the word Vajra is diamond.

 

The Carnelian dZi bead is unique in its age, about 200-280 y.o. We can observe age-related changes in Agate after bead production. Notice how the white lines of the symbol are "shifted". This phenomenon of the age of the bead cannot be counterfeited.

 

The bead was taken out of Tibet in the 1950s by a Tibetan family who was forced to leave Tibet and go to northern India, to the City of Dharamshala. Fine Pure Tibetan dZi bead.
