Vajradaka

VAJRADHAKA (Tib. Dorje Khadro)

One of the preliminary practices to Highest Yoga Tantra in the Geluk tradition are fire burning offerings (fire pujas) to Vajradhaka. By offering sesame seeds into the fire, one visualizes negativities, diseases and hindrances disappear into the deity’s mouth. Just remembering his name is meant to be protection against demons and delusions.
