Vajrasattva is also known as the buddha of purification. In the Japanese Vajrayana school of Buddhism, Shingon, Vajrasattwa is the impenetrable aspect of the bodhisattva Samantabhadra and is commonly associated with the student consultant who through the master's teachings, attains an ever-inspiring, understated and complex grounding in their impenetrable practice. Vajra means thunderbolt, although it can also mean diamond. The thunderbolt was the most powerful force, while the diamond was the most indestructible object known. The vajra that he holds is almost identical to some of the stylized thunderbolts held by Zeus in ancient Greek statues. Sattva means being.
