The vajra is a fundamental icon of Shingon Buddhism -- Japan's version of Vajrayana (Tantric) Buddhism. The vajra is a symbolic weapon that represents a thunderbolt (irresistible force) and indestructibility (it can cut any substance but not be cut itself, like a diamond). It thus represents spiritual power. Vajra in Sanskrit means diamond (lit. adamantine, unsplittable), while yana means vehicle. Vajrayana is thus translated as "The Diamond Vehicle." This splendid carving is a reproduction of the most common and traditional artistic depiction of Kōbō Daishi in Japan.
