A double dorje, also known as a Vishvavajra, is a symbolic representation found in Tibetan Buddhism. It is formed by two dorjes, which are ritual implements resembling a thunderbolt, joined together at their central axes to create a crossed vajra shape.
The dorje symbolizes enlightenment, particularly its qualities of indestructibility and immovability. The double dorje builds on this symbolism, representing the foundation of the physical world.
In artistic depictions, a double dorje can be seen supporting Mount Meru, which is considered the center of the universe in Buddhist cosmology. The double dorje is also associated with specific Tantric deities. PRactitioner's grade.
