Vajradhara
The "holder of the diamond sceptre" Vajradhara embodies the diamond-hard, uncreated and indestructible nature of the Buddhist teachings. As the primordial Buddha, he is assigned to the transcendent realm of the Dharmakaya, the "body of the great order", in the Buddhist three-body doctrine. This is the level of the "Absolute Reality", which lies beyond all ideas, concepts and imagery.
