Note: This is the exact piece you will be receiving

Dorje Drolo, one of the eight manifestations of Guru Padmasambhava, is depicted here in his fierce and untamed form, riding a pregnant tigress. This iconography symbolizes the subjugation of destructive forces and the transformation of untamed energies into the path of awakening. As the wrathful aspect of Guru Rinpoche, Dorje Drolo is revered for binding negative influences under oath and concealing profound treasures (termas) for future generations of practitioners.

The statue is masterfully crafted with a two-toned antique finish that gives it both depth and vitality. The outer robes are rendered in darker tones, contrasted by lighter brown hues on the inner robes and body, creating a harmonious balance between intensity and clarity. The flame aureole encircling Dorje Drolo is sculpted with dynamic energy, accentuating his wrathful presence while representing the all-consuming wisdom fire that burns away ignorance.

His face radiates both ferocity and compassion, embodying the inseparable union of wisdom and skillful means. Every detail of the statue invites practitioners into a deeper contemplation of Dorje Drolo’s power — not as a force of aggression, but as an uncompromising compassion that clears obstacles on the path of Dharma. T

his statue thus becomes more than a representation; it serves as a potent support for practice, evoking the fearless, indomitable energy of Guru Rinpoche in his wrathful form, a reminder that even the most chaotic energies can be transformed into awakened presence.
