: archive.org: The Indian Buddhist Iconography膧谤测补惫补箩谤补惫腻谤腻丑墨 (啶嗋ぐ啷嵿く啶掂啷嵿ぐ啶掂ぞ啶班ぞ啶灌) is a variety of 痴补箩谤补惫腻谤腻丑墨: one of the various emanations of Vairocana, as mentioned in the 5th-century S膩dhanam膩l膩 (a collection of s膩dhana texts that contain detailed instructions for rituals).鈥擧er Appearance is terrible; her 膧sana is the 腻濒墨岣峢补; she has four arms.
The four-armed form of 痴补箩谤补惫腻谤腻丑墨 is also similar to the forms mentioned before, and is called 膧rya-痴补箩谤补惫腻谤腻丑墨. The difference lies only in the attitude, number of arms, and the symbols carried in her hands. She carries in the two right hands the vajra and the goad, and in the two left the 办补辫腻濒补 and the 迟补谤箩补苍墨 with the noose. She is one-faced and three-eyed, and appears terrible with contortions of eye-brows, the adamantine excrescence, and the protruding tongue, teeth and belly. She stands in the 腻濒墨岣峢补 attitude on the corpse, unlike the other forms of 痴补箩谤补惫腻谤腻丑墨. The 办丑补峁璿补峁単补 hangs from her left shoulder as usual.
Tibetan Buddhism includes schools such as Nyingma, Kadampa, Kagyu and Gelug. Their primary canon of literature is divided in two broad categories: The Kangyur, which consists of Buddha鈥檚 words, and the Tengyur, which includes commentaries from various sources. Esotericism and tantra techniques (惫补箩谤补测腻苍补) are collected indepently.
