Bajrayogini Bajrayogini is an important and popular Goddess. She has
three forms in number and conform to two distinct types different from each other. In one form she has no head, but carries
it in her hand and in another, she has her head intact. The former form is identical in appearance with the HIndu goddess
Chhinamasta of the group of the Mahavidyas. She is always accompanied by the two yoginis on either side of her. She is yellow
in color. She carries in her left hand her own head severed by herself with her own katri held in her right hand. She is nude
and her right leg is stretched, while the left is bent down. The another form is of red color. She is no less terrible then
the headless form. She is surrounded on all sides by the terrible durning grounds. She stands in the Alidha attitude, she
rides the corpse. She is nude and has three red eyes and round contorted brows, protuding belly and tongue. She carries the
kapla in the left hand and the Vajra in the right. The Khatwanga hangs from her left shoulder. This form of Vajrayogini is
similar in many respects to the form of Nairatma and Vajravarahi. |
