Description
Vajrayogini - Transforming Passion into Compassion
Vajrayogini is the female tantric dakini that symbolises the union of method and wisdom (bliss and emptiness). She�s got a brilliant-red naked body that represents the transformation of passion and sexual energy into compassion.
Vajrayogini is adorned with various bone ornaments and around her neck she wears a garland of fifty human skulls. The khatvanga balancing on her left shoulder represents her consort Heruka Chakrasamvara, showing that they�re never separated from each other.
The Highest Yoga Tantra practice of Vajrayogini seems to be one of the most
popular in Tibetan Buddhism.
