Subduing the Great Demon
According to legend, in ancient times, there was a ferocious great
demon that frequently wreaked havoc upon the human world,
bringing suffering and misery to countless people. Upon learning of
this calamity, Shakyamuni Buddha resolved to send a manifestation to
subdue the demon. Thus, he appeared in the form of Acala, the
Immovable Wisdom King, with glaring eyes and a vajra sword in hand,
descending like a blazing inferno from the heavens.

The great demon was terrified upon seeing Acala and attempted to
flee. However, no matter what dark magic it cast, Acala remained
utterly unmoved. In the end, Acala wielded his vajra sword and
severed the demon’s evil nature, compelling it to renounce its
malevolence and take refuge in Buddhism. The once-feared demon
became a Yaksha guardian, protecting the Dharma.From that
moment on, peace was restored to the land, and the people could live
in harmony and security.

The Symbolism of Acala
Though Acala manifests in a wrathful form, his heart is filled
with compassion. His furious gaze, sharp sword, and blazing
flames symbolize:

Buddhist practitioners but also as a Birth Protector Buddha in
