The Vajra Seat (skt. vajrāsana, tib. dorjeden), the very place where the Buddha reached enlightenment, under the Bodhi Tree, by the river Nairanjana in today's Bodhgaya. In Buddhist cosmology it is considered to be the centre of the universe and the place where the 1002 buddhas of the Good Kalpa we are in, reached and will reach enlightenment.
