9" Very Old Kilaya Heruka phurpa

 When using the phurpa, the  practitioner first meditates,  then recites the sadhana of the  phurpa, and then invites the  deity to enter the phurpa. As he  does so, the practitioner  visualizes that he is  frightening and conquering the  evil spirits by placing the evil  under the point of the phurpa.  Or sometimes the practitioner  visualizes throwing the phurpa  in order to impale and subdue  the spirits. The success will  depend on the practitioner's  spirituality, concentration,  motivation, and his karmic  connections with the deity of  the phurpa and the evil spirits.

 A phurpa, sometimes called a "magic  dagger", is a tantric ritual  object used to conquer evil  spirits and to destroy  obstacles. It is utilized in  magic rituals by high level  tantric practitioners.

The triple blade of the phurpa  symbolizes the overcoming or  cutting through of the three  root poisons of ignorance,  desire, and hatred, and also  represents control over the  three times of past, present and  future. The triangular shape  represents the element of fire  and symbolizes wrathful  activity. The tenacious grip of  the makara-head at the top of  the blade represents its  ferocious activity.
