Ceremonial Dagger Gilt Garuda Ritual Vajraklaya Phurba
From the most mysterious and mystical place in the world, own a piece of history! The kila is one of many iconographic representations of divine “symbolic attributes” of Vajrayana and Hindu deities. When consecrated and bound for usage, the kila are a nirmanakaya manifestation of Vajraklaya. One of the principal methods of working with the kila and to actualize its essence-quality is to pierce the earth with it; sheath it; or as is common with Himalayan shamanic traditions, to penetrate it vertically, point down into a basket, bowl or cache of rice (or other soft grain if the kila is wooden). In the Himalayan shamanic tradition the kila may be considered as axis mundi. For the majority of Nepalese shaman, the kila is cognate with the world tree, either in their visualisations or in initiatory rites or other rituals. The kila is used as a ritual implement to signify stability on a prayer grounds during ceremonies, and only those initiated in its use, or otherwise empowered, may wield it. The energy of the k-la is fierce, wrathful, piercing, affixing, transfixing. The kila affixes the elemental process of ‘Space’ to the Earth, thereby establishing an energetic continuum. The kila, particularly those that are wooden are for shamanic healing, harmonizing and energy work and often have two nagas entwined on the blade, reminiscent of the Staff of Asclepius and the Caduceus of Hermes. Kila often also bear the ashtamangala, swastika, sauwastika and/or other Himalayan, Tantric or Hindu iconography or motifs. As a tool of exorcism, the kila may be employed to hold demons or thoughtforms in place (once they have been expelled from their human hosts. Without the phurba inside himself, the shaman has no consciousness…’The shaman himself is the phurba; he assumes its form in order to fly into other worlds and realities. Therefore to extrapolate, the kila is identified with consciousness and the root of sentience, the buddha-nature.
