Vajrasattva Purifying Incense (Internal Purification) ~ Enhances mental focus and willpower
From a Buddhist perspective, Vajrasattva can eliminate negative karma from past and present lives and clear internal energy blocks. (Hence, its title of "Inner Purification"). Vajrasattva Purifying Incense is an indispensable aid for calming the inner mind and outer environment. It purifies the breath, stabilizes and clears the mind, and achieves a harmonious natural state. The scent of Vajrasattva Purifying Incense can lift low spirits and allow you to experience the fragrance of the pristine Himalayan forests.
To create this authentic incense, we use many rare incense materials, including precious nectar medicines blessed by Tibetan masters. Precious herbs and medicinal materials, as well as rare minerals, contribute to the high quality of this incense. I believe it will bring profound and incredible assistance to everyone.
In Tibetan Buddhism, Vajrasattva is a crucial deity in the Vajrayana tradition and is considered a symbolic Buddha who purifies karma and negative forces. He represents pure essence, compassion, and wisdom, and is associated with the sambhogakāya body (enjoyment body). He holds a high status among practitioners and is often used as a core object of purification practice, particularly within the Nyingma, Sakya, Kagyu, and Gelug schools of Tibetan Buddhism. His influence is manifested in helping practitioners remove obstacles and purify their karma of body, speech, and mind, thereby facilitating the process of enlightenment. He is known as the "Buddha of Purification" or the "Vajra Being," and plays a key role in daily retreats, empowerment ceremonies, and personal practice. He is even believed to be more powerful than negative karma, preventing its consequences from manifesting.
The use of Vajrasattva primarily refers to his purification practices, which include visualizing his image, chanting the six-syllable mantra (Om Vajrasattva Hum) or the hundred-syllable mantra, and meditative processes that incorporate the "four powers" (power of support, power of destruction, power of counteraction, and power of purification). This practice is used to eradicate negative karma and dissolve obstacles, and is practiced at all levels of Vajrayana tantra, regardless of initiation. Its origins can be traced back to Buddhist scriptures and tantric teachings, where Vajrasattva's aspiration is to help all sentient beings purify their negative karma and return them to a pure state for enlightenment. He appears in early tantras such as the Vajrasattva Sutra and later developed into systematic purification rituals within Tibetan Buddhism, particularly emphasized at the end of the lunar year in the "Four Rs" tradition (including Vital Vajrasattva practice) to clear the accumulated negative influences of the year. This practice, originating from the compassionate aspirations of bodhisattvas, aims to transform inner defilements through visualization and the power of mantras. It has become a revered tool for healing and liberation in Tibetan Buddhism.
