In Vajrayana Buddhism, Samantabhadra and his consort, Samantabhadri, stand for the combination of wisdom and compassion, signifying the non-dual character of ultimate truth. Samantabhadra (blue) symbolizes the mind's primal essence, while Samantabhadri (white) stands for knowledge. In their combined yab-yum shape, they represent the inseparability of compassion and nothingness. The Nyingma school of Tibetan Buddhism places special emphasis on realizing the pure, primordial state of consciousness, which is the goal of their practice.
