Vajravarahi is also known as Dorje Phagmo, Vajravarahi is a representation of complete Buddhahood in female form, whose practices are associated with the Chakrasamvara Cycle of Anuttarayoga Tantra. Although her practice exists in all schools of Tibetan Buddhism, she is particularly associated with the Kagyu tradition and has appeared to and bestowed initiations on some Mahasiddhas over the years. Making offerings to her image makes a connection with this extremely potent Buddha and seeing her plants seeds of enlightenment in our mind stream. Her image pacifies our immediate environment, clears negative energy and protects from negative interferences.
Vajravarahi holds a cemetery knife in her right hand and a skull cup in her left. In the crook of her left elbow is a khatvanga staff and her two legs are in a celestial dancing posture on a human corpse. She is often depicted with a sow's head on the side of her own, symbolic of triumph of dharma over ignorance.
