Vajravetali

Post by Konchog1 »

This a bit of an odd question, but I can't any detailed description of her. All I know is that she's blue, she holds a skullcup and knife, and her face is filled with rage.

What else? Is she attractive or repulsive? Is she covered in ash? etc. Does anyone have a detailed description ? Also any other information on her would be appreciated.
Equanimity is the ground. Love is the moisture. Compassion is the seed. Bodhicitta is the result.

-Paraphrase of Khensur Rinpoche Lobsang Tsephel citing the Guhyasamaja Tantra

"All memories and thoughts are the union of emptiness and knowing, the Mind.
Without attachment, self-liberating, like a snake in a knot.
Through the qualities of meditating in that way,
Mental obscurations are purified and the dharmakaya is attained."

-Ra Lotsawa, All-pervading Melodious Drumbeats
