Vajraganthā means 'bell of the absolute', viz. the bell used in the rite of supreme realization. Everything associated with this intention assumes vajra-nature and the word is scattered freely through- out the texts. As an epithet I have used 'adamantine'. Vajradhātu, 'adamantine sphere' is the Absolute itself, personified as the Supreme Buddha Vajrasattva, 'Adamantine Being'. Also in use is the adjective vajrin, used in our text either of Hevajra himself or by the pupil addres- sing his master (vajraguru or vajrācārya). See vajrin in the Index.
