【Vajra】 A vajra is a ritual implement in Tibetan Buddhism. It is also known as a dorje or koukha.

This vajra was introduced to Tibet, and in Tibetan Buddhism, it is still used today as a ritual implement that represents the Buddha's teachings, the extinguishing of worldly desires, and the pursuit of enlightenment.
