The double dorje or crossed dorje (or in Sanskrit; visvavajra) is a symbol very common in Buddhism and Hinduism. It shows dorje-heads going into all four cardinal directions from the central hub, which symbolizes the principle of absolute stability, of finding solid ground in the middle of the universe.
It is said that a vast crossed dorje underlies Mount Meru, the esoteric mountain in Hindu and Buddhist cosmology that is considered to be the center and axis of all worlds, both inside ourselves and outside, and both the physical and non-physical worlds. Thus the double dorje supports the entire universe and also symbolizes a perfect balance between spirit and matter, heaven and earth, wisdom and compassion (the divine feminine and divine masculine).
Being a symbol of indestructability, a double dorje is often depicted as the central hub of intricate mandala representations, such as in thangka’s, where it forms the immoveable support or foundation of the mandala palace. Also the symbol is often found on for example depictions and statues of buddhist deities, ritual attributes, amulets, furniture and fabrics
These double dorje's are placed on a pedestal as standing figurines/statues, perfect to place on your altar. They are made of bronze with a very light, almost silvery color. Sizes: Approximately 8,5 centimeters high and 7,5 centimeters wide. Weight is 103 grams.
