Counters are used as a tool for counting mantras by means of a mala. Dorje of Vajra is the Sanskrit word for both lightning bolts and diamonds and is considered a ritual or spiritual attribute, mainly in Buddhism but also in Hinduism. In Tibetan, the word ‘village’ of the same name is often used as a man’s name in Tibet and Bhutan. It also often refers to a small sceptre held in the right hand by Tibetan tantric practitioners during ceremonies, and with which a number of statues of the Buddha are equipped. The Dorje, also known as Vajra, destroys all kinds of ignorance and is itself indestructible. In Tantric rituals he symbolizes the male principle for methodology and compassion, while the corresponding bell in the left hand indicates the female principle and wisdom.
