In the Nara period, before Kukai formally introduced Esoteric Buddhism to Japan, an early form of Esoteric Buddhism was practiced in Japan, and this item is a vajra from that period, called a three-pronged vajra because of the number of prongs it has. A vajra is a pestle-shaped weapon with sharp blades at both ends of the handle, modeled after lightning. There are three shapes: one with a single protrusion at both ends is called a "single-pronged vajra," one with three prongs is called a "three-pronged vajra," and one with five prongs is called a "five-pronged vajra." We will introduce the "three-pronged vajra" that wards off immediate misfortune. [History] The vajra (three-pronged vajra) has been since ancient times in Tibetan and Indian rituals, prayers, meditation, purification, and protection against evil. Originally, it belonged to Indra, the god of thunder, but later in Buddhism, it was believed that a god (Vajrapani) wielding this weapon always followed the Buddha like a shadow, protecting him. As a ritual implement in esoteric Buddhism, the vajra was adopted as a symbol of the wisdom of enlightenment that breaks through worldly desires, because this weapon is strong and can destroy anything. The "three-pronged vajra" that came to Japan is the oldest form of vajra, and it is said that Kobo Daishi (Kukai) received it from his teacher, threw it when choosing a place to spread esoteric Buddhism, and that it became the ritual implement that guided Kobo Daishi (Kukai) to Mount Koya. [Anecdote] In Indian mythology, the Vajra is the thunder and lightning unleashed by Indra (Taishakuten). It is said that when Kobo Daishi, Kukai, was studying in Tang China as an envoy and was on the shore of Mingzhou on his way back to Japan after receiving all the teachings of esoteric Buddhism, he threw a three-pronged vajra towards the east with the prayer, "Show me a suitable place in Japan to spread esoteric Buddhism," and it flew towards Japan on a purple cloud. The shape is an infinity symbol (∞), the same as the torus cycle. The double helix shape is activated by the frequency of the user and is said to release the upward energy of the spiral. In other words, the "three-pronged vajra" has been with the belief that by matching the frequency of the user, one can ward off all difficulties in their surroundings and obtain upward energy and guidance toward bliss. [How to Use] This three-pronged vajra is believed to possess the power to shatter evil and is to ward off difficulties and worldly desires. Simply having it nearby is considered to protect against misfortune and disaster. The three-pronged vajra is frequently depicted in ancient Japanese picture scrolls, and in most cases, it is held in the hand as if to align with one's own energy.
