A very impressive image of Vajrasattva (Dorje Sempa) in consort with the wisdom essence Dorje Nyema. It is a modern lost wax image from Nepal, cast in copper with full gold gilt finish. Each figure is shown with one face, and two arms. He holds the dorje and bell, while she holds a skull cup and kartika, with legs entwined around Dorje Sempa. They are both adorned with jewels and gold ornaments.

Vajrasattva, known in Tibetan as Dorje Sempa, is primordially free, pure Buddha wisdom personified. Dorje Sempa holds a very significant place in Tibetan Buddhism. This is due in large part to the fact that the ngondro, or preliminary practices focused on him are of primary importance, and with minor variations, they're common to all the major schools of Tibetan Buddhism.
