Nairatmya Buddhist Gods Symbols Pendant Dangle Charm

The name Nairatmya translates as 'She Who Has Realized Selflessness,' or 'Lady of Emptiness,' which refers to a female Buddha. Buddhism asserts it is an illusion for us to believe that we are autonomous, distinct selves. Because, in reality, there is a tremendous web of communion that binds everything that exists to us. This insight is personified in Nairatmya. Her skin is a deep shade of blue that reflects the boundless breadth of her consciousness. She moves around the cosmos unhindered, much like the element of space, because she has transcended ego-centered life. Her eyes sparkle with the insight of one who comprehends the depths and complexities of life. She lifts the curved sword she wields, the 'Kartika,' toward the sky, ready to sever any unfavorable mental states that may manifest. She disintegrates illusions in her skullcup (kapala), restoring them to their fundamental nature as shimmering rainbows of energy in space.
