Vairochana

There are five Dhyani Buddhas  Vairochana is one of them and he is  regarded as first Dhyani Buddha by the Nepalese Buddhist. His place is in the sanctum of the stupa where he is the master of whole temple and its contents. Therefore, he cannot be represented outside the stupam but exception to this rule is frequently met within the important stupa of Nepal where he is assihgned a place betweenAkshobhya in east and Ranta Sambhav in the south
Vairochana represents the cosmic element of Rupa (form). When represented, He is white in colour and his two hands are held against the chest hand unieted. His female is Vahradhatviswari. He is in preaching attitude.
