Dorje Phagmo is depicted with three eyes, symbolizing her awakened wisdom and ability to perceive the three times. In her right hand, she holds a kartika (ritual curved knife), while her left hand holds a skull cup (kapala). A khatvanga trident rests across her shoulders, representing the transformation of ordinary attachment and delusion into enlightened wisdom. She is adorned with a garland of human skulls, further emphasizing her fierce aspect and her mastery over the forces of ignorance and death.
With one foot pressing upon Mara, Dorje Phagmo dances upon a beautifully crafted lotus base, symbolizing her triumph over obstacles and worldly afflictions. Her dynamic dancing posture expresses fearless compassion and enlightened activity, while the lotus represents purity arising unstained from samsara. This sacred representation of Dorje Phagmo would be a meaningful presence on a Buddhist altar, meditation space, or shrine, serving as a powerful reminder of the path toward overcoming inner obstacles and realizing wisdom.
