The Amitayus Buddha is the Buddha for a long life. In the Buddhist tantra, many forms of Buddha (aspects) are distinguished, with which the meditating person identifies. The Buddha form is visualized in the meditation and the corresponding mantra is recited. Buddha Amitayus (in Tibet: Tse Pag Med) is a form of Amitabha, the Buddha of boundless light. Amitayus holds a vase with immortality nectar in his hands. Thus he is the Buddha of long life. This is an ideal for Buddhists because they can then work as human beings for longer in the fortunate rebirth to liberate other beings and themselves. The meditator receives the transmission of the mantra from his Lama and recites it with a correct motivation. Dorje of Vajra is the Sanskrit word for both lightning bolts and diamonds and is considered a ritual or spiritual attribute, mainly in Buddhism but also in Hinduism. In Tibetan, the word ‘village’ of the same name is used a lot as a man in Tibet and Bhutan. It also often refers to a small sceptre held in the right hand by Tibetan tantric practitioners during ceremonies, and with which a number of statues of the Buddha are equipped. The Dorje, also known as Vajra, destroys all kinds of ignorance and is itself indestructible. In Tantric rituals he symbolizes the male principle for methodology and compassion, while the corresponding bell in the left hand indicates the female principle and wisdom.
