Tibetan Buddhism (Vajrayana or tantric Buddhism)
: academia.edu: The Structure and Meanings of the Heruka Maṇḍalaղī (तैलपाती) (or Tailapacī) is the name of a Ḍākinī who, together with the Vīra (hero) named Tailapaca forms one of the 36 pairs situated in the Cittacakra, according to the 10th century Ḍākṇa chapter 15. Accordingly, the cittacakra refers to one of the three divisions of the Ծṇa-ṭa (‘emanation layer�), situated in the ܰ첹ṇḍ. The 36 pairs of Ḍākinīs [viz., Tailapacī] and Vīras are black in color; they each have one face and four arms; they hold a skull bowl, a skull staff, a small drum, and a knife.
Note: Tailapākī is Tailapacī in Jayasena’s Ratnapadmarāganidhi (D 1516, 31 r 1) and ղī or Tailapātā in Ratnasena’s Maṇḍalārcanavidhi (Skt ms. NGMPP B 24/52, 17 v 2 and 30 r 5-r 6, which derives from manuscripts AB’s reading)
