The Three Vajra - List

The Vajra are a formulation within Vajrayana Buddhism.
They represent righteous thought (mind), word (speech), and deed (body), and also relating to the three kāyas, with the aspect of body located at the crown (nirmāṇakāya, OM), the aspect of speech at the throat (saṃbhogakāya, AH), and the aspect of mind at the heart (dharmakāya, HUM).
They are the three doors of actions i.e. three doors through which our thoughts and words and deeds are communicated.
When we modify how we are thinking, this will change how we speak, and that too will change how we act.
The great bliss wheel in a mandala is sometimes surrounded by three concentric wheels, the mind, speech, and body wheels. These three are also sometimes named collectively as the triple wheel.
For that purpose, until I attain Buddhahood, I will apply my body, speech, and mind to virtue.
Until death, I will apply my body, speech, and mind to virtue.
From today until this time tomorrow, I will apply my body, speech, and mind to virtue.
