Nice pendant made with a (recently made) 3 eye dzi bead, set inbetween a bronze double-faced Hayagriva pendant and a bronze vajra-shaped bead cap.
On the symbolism of the 3 eye dzi:
The 3 eye dzi bead is associated with Kubera (also named Dzambala), the Tibetan god of wealth. Also the 3 eyes stand for the 3 main roads or aspects of a human life; health, career and personal life. Take those two associations together and it is clear what this dzi bead symbolizes; wealth on all main roads of life. The 3 eye dzi bead helps to gain, keep and increase not only material and financial wealth, but also a wealth of experience, knowledge and wisdom. It helps to keep a clear overview of where to focus on, where to wisely spend your money, time and energy on and where all this would be wasted and you’d better just stop and walk away.
According to legend, Kubera himself wasn’t born in incredible wealth, but instead in unimaginable poverty. He needed to gain a lot of experience, wisdom and skill along his way to becoming the keeper of all earthly treasures that he is today. Therefore, Kubera is said to especially appreciate those who adequately assess their capabilities, and try to earn not only money, but also a broad outlook and experience. Kubera rewards those who work hard for an overall rich and full life on all 3 main roads.
When you look at a 3 eye dzi bead closely, you could say that the 3 eyes resemble a mouth and two eyes. It is said that a 3 eye dzi bead loves to be taken to new places, where the energy of wealth is soaring in one way or another. The eyes and mouth of the bead will feast themselves on things like the richness of nature, the abundance of a good meal, the beauty of unique architecture or the treasures found in art musea. All these impressions will enrich the dynamics of the bead and eventually return this to the owner in the form of new potential.
On the symbolism of Hayagriva: the horse-headed deity Hayagriva can be seen as a wrathful manifestation of Avalokiteshvara or Amitabha. It is said that his scream is so loud and piercing that is shatters all ignorance and foolishness.
Total length of this pendant is 9 centimeters. Weight is 29 grams. The dzi bead is a recently made one, with a dark brown, semi-transparent color.
