Chakrasamvara Mandala 05-1 Bottom Left - Vajrayogini  [5 of 12]


Below the mandala on the left is Vajrayogini (Tib. Naro Khachoma), the dakini of wisdom. Vajrayogini is visualized as a red-coloured 16-year old girl, in the full bloom of her youth, radiantly beautiful, full of freshness and vitality. Her intense expression reflects her passionate nature. She carries a knife in her right hand and a skull cup in her left hand and a bone khatvanga on her shoulder. She symbolizes the female tantric aspect of the Buddha embodying the union of bliss and emptiness. Her naked red body represents the transformation of passion and sexual energy into compassion.
