Vajrakilaya (Sanskrit: Vajrakīlaya; Tibetan: རྡོ་རྗེ་ཕུར་པ་)

Dorje Phurba, also known as Vajrakilaya (Sanskrit: Vajrakīlaya; Tibetan: རྡོ་རྗེ་ཕུར་པ་), is a wrathful yidam deity in Vajrayana Buddhism who embodies the enlightened activity of all the Buddhas and is especially revered for his power to remove obstacles and destroy the forces hostile to compassion. His name translates to “Thunderbolt Nail,” and he is often depicted wielding a ritual dagger called a phurba, which symbolizes the piercing of ignorance and aggression. The phurba itself is a three-sided blade used in tantric rituals to stabilize energy, exorcise negativity, and transmute destructive forces into wisdom. His practice is considered one of the most potent in the Nyingma tradition, with numerous terma (revealed teachings) dedicated to him, including those by great masters like Padmasambhava and Dudjom Rinpoche.
