Vajradhara (Tib. Dorje Chang) is the ultimate primordial Buddha, or Adi Buddha, according to the Gelug and Kagyu schools of Tibetan Buddhism. In the evolution of Indian Buddhism, Vajradhara gradually displaced Samantabhadra, who remains the 'Primordial Buddha' in the Nyingma, or "Ancient School." However the two are metaphysically equivalent.
According to the Kagyu lineage, Vajradhara is the primordial Buddha, the dharmakaya buddha. He is expressing the quintessence of buddhahood itself and representing the essence of the historical Buddha's realization of Enlightenment. As such Vajradhara is thought to be the supreme essence of all (male) Buddhas (his name means 'The bearer of the thunderbolt'). It is this Tantric form of Sakyamuni which is called Vajradhara.
