This bodhisattva can be identified by the peacocks on the base of his throne and the unusual gesture of his central hand in opening a lotus flower. Vajradharma Lokeshvara is a form of Avalokiteshvara, the Bodhisattva of Infinite Compassion. Esoteric divinities like Vajradharma Lokeshvara have multiple arms to hold objects that reveal their secret identities.
