Phurba (Iron, 8")

The Phurba, also known as Kila in Sanskrit, is a ritual tool of profound spiritual significance in Tantric or Vajrayana Buddhism. Originally used in non-Buddhist sacrificial rites, the phurba has been transformed in Buddhist practice to symbolize the enlightened wrath of all Buddhas, cutting through aggression and afflictive emotions. It is associated with the Tantric deity Vajrakilaya, who holds the cosmic phurba to liberate sentient beings from suffering. Symbolism & Meaning The Phurba represents the power to cut through obstacles and negative emotions, especially those of attachment, ignorance, and anger. The dagger's sharpness and firmness symbolize the strength of enlightened wisdom, while its form is also seen as a conduit for transformative power, enabling spiritual liberation. Vajrakilaya, the deity associated with the phurba, uses it as a weapon to destroy ignorance and bring about peace.
