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, a 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.How to set up your own Buddhist Shrine?Find a clean, quiet, and uncluttered spotSet up an altar table, and cover it with an altar cloth that calls to youPlace your sacred item (statue, thangka, or a picture of Buddha) at the center Show more
