The surface of a Vajra Pill is red-colored. Additionally, one type of Vajra Pill has a small white dot that is painted with Amrit on the red body. It is like a white label on its back. Once the Yidam has entered the mandala in the Vajra Pill, the white dot makes it easier for the disciples, who are receiving the initiation, to see the Vajra Pill turning around, rotating, going forward or backward, making turns, cruising at high speed, or the white dot suddenly disappearing, reappearing, growing, shrinking, or even miraculously transforming into the form of a Vajra, when the Vajra Pill is performing a Tibetan Guozhuang dance or the ice-skating dance.<\/p><p>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 The inside of a Vajra Pill is white-colored after it breaks. When the fragments are distributed to disciples receiving the initiation to take by mouth, one will feel a distinctive fragrant flavor and sweet taste in the mouth.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: right;\">Inquiry Center of the World Buddhism Association Headquarters<br \/>Written on behalf of great holy virtuous ones to answer questions raised<br \/>March 7, 2018<\/p><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><em>(English translation by Zunba, last edited 2020-10-05)<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c3bcec6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c3bcec6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wbahq.org\/35answers\/answer-20\/\">Answer 20<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d564077 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"d564077\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6b47b71 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"6b47b71\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9f106ed elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9f106ed\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><a href=\"https:\/\/huazangsi.org\/en\/important-replies-from-holy-virtuous-ones-and-eminent-monastics\/\">\u00ab Important Replies from Holy Virtuous Ones and Eminent Monastics<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f43f280 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"f43f280\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Although a Vajra Pill is very small, in the interior of the pill, there is a Vajra mandala.
