About the Product

Finishing: FULL ELECTROPLATED

Process: Ceramic Molding System

Advantages of Ceramic Molding
The main advantages of ceramic molds are: a reusable pattern (the item used to create the shape of the mold) excellent surface finish close dimensional tolerances thin cross-sections and intricate shapes can be cast. For undercuts and other difficult to cast features part of the pattern can be made from wax in conjunction with a standard pattern; essentially using investment and ceramic mold casting techniques together. The main disadvantages are: it is only cost effective for small- to medium-sized production runs and the ceramic is not reusable. Ferrous and high-temperature non-ferrous are most commonly cast with these processes; other materials cast include: aluminum copper magnesium titanium and zinc alloys.

HOW TO CAST A CERAMIC MOLD

Vajrayogini: Brief Introduction

Vajrayoginī (Sanskrit: Vajrayoginī; Tibetan: Dorje Naljorma ) literally 'the diamond female yogi'. She is a Highest Yoga Tantra Yidam (Skt. Iṣṭha-deva(tā)) and her practice includes methods for preventing ordinary death intermediate state (bardo) and rebirth (by transforming them into paths to enlightenment) and for transforming all mundane daily experiences into higher spiritual paths. Vajrayoginī is a generic female yidam and although she is sometimes visualized as simply Vajrayoginī in a collection of her sādhanas she is visualized in an alternate form in over two thirds of the practices. Her other forms include Vajravārāhī (Tibetan: Dorje Pakmo Wylie: rdo-rje phag-mo; English: the Vajra Sow) and Krodikali (alt. Krodhakali Kālikā Krodheśvarī Krishna Krodhini Sanskrit; Tibetan:Troma Nagmo; Wylie:khros ma nag mo; English: 'the Wrathful Lady' or 'the Fierce Black One' ). Vajrayoginī is a ḍākiṇī and a Vajrayāna Buddhist meditation deity. As such she is considered to be a female Buddha.

Vajrayoginī is often described with the epithet sarva-buddha-dakinī meaning 'the ḍākiṇī who is the Essence of all Buddhas'.Vajrayogini's sādhana or practice originated in India between the tenth and twelfth centuries. It evolved from the Chakrasaṃvara sādhana where Vajrayoginī appears as his yab-yum consort to become a stand-alone practice of anuttarayoga tantra in its own right. The practice of Vajrayoginī belongs to the Mother Tantra (Tibetan: ma-rgyud) class of anuttarayoga tantra along with other tantras such as Heruka Chakrasaṃvara and Hevajra.

According to scholar Miranda Shaw Vajrayoginī is "inarguably the supreme deity of the Tantric pantheon. No male Buddha including her divine consort Heruka Chakrasaṃvara approaches her in metaphysical or practical import."[9] A number of lamas and other contemporary scholars do in fact argue otherwise as Vajradhāra is widely considered the supreme deity of the Tantric pantheon but the importance of Vajrayoginī is agreed upon.IconographyVajrayoginī is visualized as the translucent deep red form of a 16 year old female with the third eye of wisdom set vertically on her forehead. Vajrayoginī is generally depicted with the traditional accoutrements of a ḍākiṇī including a cleaver (Tib. drigug Skt. kartṛī) marked with a vajra in her right hand and a kapala (skull cup) in her left hand which is filled with blood that she partakes of with her upturned mouth. Her consort Chakrasaṃvara is often symbolically depicted as a khaṭvāṇga on Vajrayoginī's left shoulder when she is in 'solitary hero' form. Vajrayoginī's khatvanga is marked with a vajra and from it hang a damaru drum a bell and a triple banner. Her extended right leg treads on the chest of red Kālarātri while her bent left leg treads on the forehead of black Bhairava bending his head backward and pressing it into his back at the level of his heart. Her head is adorned with a crown of five human skulls and she wears a necklace of fifty human skulls. She is depicted as standing in the center of a blazing fire of exalted wisdom.

Each aspect of Vajrayoginī's form and mandala is designed to convey a spiritual meaning. For example her brilliant red-colored body symbolizes the blazing of her inner fire (Tib. tummo). Her single face symbolizes that she has realized that all phenomena are of one nature in emptiness. Her two arms symbolize her realization of the two truths. Her three eyes symbolize her ability to see everything in the past present and future. She looks upward toward the Pure Dākiṇī Land (Skt. Kechara) demonstrating her attainment of outer and inner Pure Dākiṇī Land and indicating that she leads her followers to these attainments. The curved drigug knife in her right hand shows her power to cut the continuum of the delusions and obstacles of her followers and of all living beings. Drinking the nectar of blood from the kapala in her left hand symbolizes her experience of the clear light of bliss.

In her form as Vajravārāhī when she is known as 'the Vajra Sow' she is often pictured with a sow's head on the side of her own as an ornament and in one form has the head of a sow herself. Vajrayoginī is often associated with triumph over ignorance the pig being associated with ignorance in Buddhism. This sow head relates to the origins of Vajravārāhī from the Hindu sow-faced goddess Vārāhī.

The severed-headed form of Vajrayoginī is similar to the Indian goddess Chinnamasta who is recognized by both Hindus and Buddhists
