The Phurba traces its origins back to ancient Indian texts, where it was associated with Vedic sacrifices before being adopted into Tibetan Buddhism by the legendary Padmasambhava in the ninth century. This Phurba depicts the three-headed Vajrakila Buddha, which represents the transformation of negative forces into wisdom and compassion.

Introduction To The Phurba:The ceremonial dagger (Sanskrit: Kila; Tibetan: phurba) is important for the expelling of evil and is thought to be especially effective in neutralizing the forces that obstruct Tantric Buddhist practice. It has ancient origins, first appearing in the Indian Rg Veda as the core blade of the vajra used by Indra to destroy the primordial cosmic snake Vritra. Kila, which means peg or stake in Sanskrit, was most likely associated with Vedic sacrifices. Meditation on the Vajrakila Tantra, an early Indian scripture first promoted in Tibet in the eighth century by Padmasambhava, one of the founding teachers of Tibetan Buddhism, is used to invoke the three-headed Vajrakila Buddha.
