Dorje Drolo

Mantra for Dorje Dorlo


namo guru dorje drolo


Guru Dorje Drolo is one of the Eight Manifestations of Guru Rinpoche, Guru Rinpoche in wrathful form riding upon a pregnant tigress. He assumed this manifestation in Paro Taktsang in Bhutan in order to bring the local deities and guardians under his control.
At thirteen different places called 'Tiger's slair', Taktsang, Guru Rinpoche manifested in "the terrifying wrathful form of crazy wisdom", binding worldly spirits under oath to protect the spiritual treasures, deep teachings and sacred objects of tantra from becoming mixed, diluted or lost in distant future and in order to maintain their blessing powers afresh by future followers and serve the Dharma. He was then known as Dorje Drolo 'Wild Wrathful Vajra'.
He then dwelled in the cemetery known as the Pile of the Worlds, turning the Wheel of the Dharma for the dakinis for five years. At the end of this time, he received the name Guru Dorje Drolo, a wisdom form, an expression of the rainbow body emanated in the final days before Padmasambhava's departure from Tibet. Dorje Drolo made many prophecies and multiplied sacred teachings through his meditative powers, securing the commitment of local spirits to extend their protection across generations. Dorje Drolo is the Buddha oriented towards the welfare of practitioners in the future - our present degenerate age.

As Dorje Drolo, Padmasambhava fearlessly treads underfoot the ever deceptive ego and severs karmic entanglements by wielding his three-edged phurba. By subduing the self-created demons and fascinations of individual predispositions, he reveals the apparitional nature of all selfish aims and exposes the mind as utterly pure and receptive to whatever arises. He challenges every manifestation of negativity with an attitude that each life situation, regardless of its outward appearance, can prove to be an instruction in truth. Thus he has the power to overcome self deception and illusions created by human perceptions, and comfort beings with the cool radiance of the Dharma.

Centuries-Old Lost-Wax Metal Casting

Each sculpture at Handmade Handicraft is crafted using the ancient cire-perdue (lost-wax) technique, a craft perfected over a millennium by the Newar artisans of Patan. The process begins with sculpting beeswax and Himalayan tree resin by hand. A multi-layered clay mold is formed around the wax, which is melted away in the furnace, creating a void that is filled with molten red copper or bronze.

24K Mercury Gilding

Applied with pure gold leaf and fused using fire gilding for an ethereal sheen that endures for generations.

Cold-Gold Face Painting

The sacred facial features and serene gaze of deities are carefully rendered with powdered cold gold and natural pigments.

Hand-Chiseled Detailing

Intricate robes, mandalas, and jewels are carved by hand with miniature steel chisels and devotion.
