Single-stranded pestle

It is one of the Vajra (Vajra, transliteration and postscript) held by those who practice the Tantric truth. Also known as Duguchu, Dugu, Dugu, Yiyichu, Yiyibazhela. Gu, also known as cobalt, [月*古], 古, is a borrowed phonetic word. The Vajra was originally a weapon in ancient India. In Esoteric Buddhism, it symbolizes the bodhicitta that destroys troubles. It is the object held by the deities or a prop used by those who practice the truth. It is divided into single, three, five, nine, etc. Each kind symbolizes different meanings. The solitary stock signifies the wisdom of the Tathagata Great Sun, the one and only dharma realm; it also represents the meaning of diligence, bravery, and destruction. Because there are no forks at both ends and it is a single-peaked pestle shape, it is called a single-stranded crotch. It is the object held by the Mystic Vajra Warrior, the vajra in the forty hands of Thousand-Armed Avalokitesvara, and the right hand of Vajragarbha Bodhisattva's 108 arms. It is the samaya form of Bodhisattva Great Effort among the sixteen sage kalpas in the Mandala of the Vajra Realm, Sakyamuni the Emperor of the Twenty Heavens, Bodhisattva of the Vajra Division of the Mandala of the Womb Realm, and Bodhisattva Abiding in the Immortal Realm.
