Modesty Prevents.... by musicmuse_ca

This Tibetan Esoteric Buddhist statue of the Vajra Guardian of Great Might and Virtue is one of several in the Yonghegong Lamasery. It depicts the Esoteric practice of having a female sexual partner for certain types of Esoteric Buddhist practices.

As Vajrasekhara-sutra says:

"How pure is man's mind! It's only natural that lust should change him. Keeping away from lust will restore purity in him, and keeping away from lust means conquering it with another form of lust."

Sex is cloaked (literally in this shot) in mysticism and given the role of "conquering lust".

It is said that these statues were once used to show the Chinese Imperial Princes the facts of life. Sadly, now they are deemed to be too scandalous for general consumption, and draped with the modesty cloth you see in the lower right of the shot.

I do have a picture of the complete statue in my guidebook, which describes it as a "Buddhist double statue which symbolizes the supreme state of yoga."

Oh, ok then....

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aum

de.youtube.com/watch?v=3gHS6FslaTk

Om (także Aum, ॐ) jest najświętszą sylabą hinduizmu. Uważana jest za sylabę-nasienie (bidźa), postrzegana jako dźwięk powstania Wszechświata, za świętą uznawana jest także w buddyzmie ezoterycznym, ...

Aum (also Om, ॐ) is the most sacred syllable in Hinduism, first coming to light in the Vedic Tradition. The syllable is sometimes referred to as the "Udgitha" or "pranava mantra" (primordial mantra); not only because it is considered to be the primal sound, but also because most mantras begin with it. As a seed syllable (bija), it is also considered holy in Esoteric Buddhism. In Devanagari it is written ॐ (Unicode U+0950) and in Tibetan script ༀ (Unicode U+0F00).

With preceding a or ā, the o of om in Sanskrit grammar in sandhi (Sanskrit: संधि, "joining") does not form vriddhi (au) but guna (o) per Pāṇini 6.1.95.

The Sanskrit name for the syllable is praṇava, from a root nu "to shout, sound, praise", verbal pra-nu- being attested as "to make a humming or droning sound" in the Brahmanas, and taking the specific meaning of "to utter the syllable om" in the Chandogya Upanishad and the Shrauta Sutras. More rarely used terms are akṣara or ekākṣara, and in later times omkāra becomes prevalent.

A popular depiction of the Aum syllable in the Devanagari script () is a ligature of ओ+ँ (oṃ, encoded in Unicode at U+0950 ॐ, the Tibetan script variant ༀ at U+0F00, and the Chinese 唵 at U+5535 or 吽 at U+543D).

It is also believed that after a very long time of meditation the Purusha Sukta revealed the word AUM as being the truth.[citation needed]

In Tamil "Om" (Tamil: ஒம்) literally means "Yes", "Yes, it is".
