Vajrapani’s name means, literally, “Indestructible Hand” - the Hand of the Buddha. He is the might hand of all the Buddhas, the Power of the Buddhas. When we chant his mantra we praise his glorious name, Vajrapni, the Bodhisattva of Power, and we invite his powerful activities into our lives:
Om Vajrapani Hum
Here, chanted for one full hour, for a supercharged meditative session with the most powerful of the Great Bodhisattvas. Avalokiteshvara is the Bodhisattva of Compassion and Method, Manjushri is the Bodhisattva of Wisdom, but Vajrapani is the Bodhisattva of Power.

Vajrapani, who belongs the Vajra Family of Akshobhya Buddha, is also often called Guhyapati , or the “Lord of Secrets”, in the context of Vajrayana, the “secret mantra” path. The secret element is more about “looking inward” and the tantric methods of understanding the true nature of reality - tantric insight into truth - than the idea of keeping esoteric secrets.
In the Vajra vidarana Sutra, Vajrapani’s “inward” nature is explained:
“Condensed within you alone,
Is the power and strength of all the Buddhas.
Manifesting in the wrathful form of the enlightened Vajra,
I pay homage to you Vajra Vidarana, the Subduer."
