“Vajrasattva originates from the syllable HŪM and is white in colour. He is two-armed and one-faced and holds in his two hands the Vajra and Vajra-marked Ghaṇṭā. He represents the astringent taste, the Autumn season, the letters of the alphabet ya, ra, la, and va, and the part of the night from midnight to day-break. His second name is Dharmadhātu”.
