What does Vajra mean?
Like many Sanskrit words, vajra has more than one possible meaning in English. In this case, it can be translated as both “thunderbolt” and “diamond.” This dual definition can be traced back to its origins as a ritual object that had both the indestructible nature of a diamond and the irresistible force of a thunderbolt. It is a sort of club that ends in a spherical head and is said to be the weapon of the deity Indra. The vajra is important in Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism as a symbol of spirituality and spiritual power.

In yoga, vajra is a style that encourages a slower and more meditative approach to yogic practice. (info from yogapedia with thanks)
