Protector Deity White Mahakala Figurine | Guardian of the Dharma This Protector Deity White Mahakala, guardian of the Dharma, measures 14.4”/36.5cm in height and 11.6”/29.5cm at the base and weighs 5.01 kg. Made from a copper body with gold coloring and detailed acrylic paintings, the statue showcases the fierce yet compassionate presence of this powerful protector deity. Expertly crafted by skilled Nepali artisans, this piece reflects traditional artistry and is ideal for altars or meditation spaces. As a wrathful manifestation of Avalokiteshvara, White Mahakala defends practitioners from obstacles and negativity, safeguarding the path of Dharma while cultivating inner strength and clarity. White Mahakala is portrayed in his wrathful form, embodying fierce compassion and unwavering protection. With three piercing eyes, he sees the past, present, and future, reflecting his omniscient awareness. His powerful stance affirms his authority as a guardian of the Dharma and a generous provider of both material prosperity and spiritual realization. He is depicted with six arms, each bearing symbolic implements that convey his divine purpose. In one hand, he holds a kartika, a curved flaying knife used to cut through ego, ignorance, and delusion. Another hand carries a damaru, the small hand drum whose rhythmic sound symbolizes the reverberation of Dharma and the awakening of consciousness. He also wields a double vajra axe, representing unshakable power and the destruction of all inner and outer obstacles. A trident (trishula), signifying the transcendence of the three poisons—ignorance, desire, and hatred—is held firmly in another hand. Additionally, he carries a skull cup (kapala), a sacred vessel often used in tantric rituals, which in this depiction contains the vase of immortality, symbolizing the nectar of long life and the inexhaustible blessings of Mahakala. His fierce expression, complete with furrowed brow and bared fangs, is not one of hatred, but of powerful compassion—he removes negativity and clears the path for spiritual growth, acting as both a formidable protector and a compassionate guardian.Size: 14.4”/36.5cm (Height) x 11.6”/29.5cm (Base)Weight: 5.01 kgMaterial: Gold Coloring, Acrylic Paintings, Copper BodyWhite Mahakala, the Wrathful Manifestation of Compassion, is regarded throughout Tibetan Buddhism as a protector of the Dharma and spiritual practitioners.
