Dorje Drolo embodies the paradox of enlightenment—fierce wrath expresses profound compassion and transcendent wisdom beyond conventional logic. He is portrayed with one head, two arms, and three eyes, symbolizing his awareness of the past, present, and future. His dark red-colored body radiates intense energy as he dances atop a pregnant tigress, a symbol of mastery over wild forces and protection from negative energies. In his right hand, he holds a vajra, representing indestructible spiritual power, while his left hand grasps a phurba (ritual dagger), used to subdue obstacles and opposing forces. A flaming halo blazes behind him, signifying his dynamic, wrathful wisdom. Wearing a skirt-like garment and captured in an assertive dancing posture, Dorje Drolo stands on a sun disc lotus base, symbolizing enlightened awareness and fearlessness.

In Tibetan Buddhism, Dorje Drollo is a furious incarnation of Guru Rinpoche (Padmasambhava), representing fierce compassion and protection. With an angry expression, a crown of skulls around his head, a vajra and phurba in his hands, and flames all around, he is shown as having the ability to change bad energy. Dorje Drollo, riding a pregnant tigress, represents his control over wild elements. He transforms toxic emotions into enlightened consciousness and offers protection from evil influences and impediments. Practitioners ask for his blessings to be courageous, fearless, and empowered. Chanting "Om Ah Hung Benza Guru Pema Siddhi Hung," his mantra, summons his mighty powers of transformation and protection.
