Kurukulla, originally an Indian tribal deity linked to magical domination and enchantment, was integrated into the Buddhist pantheon, notably in the Hevajra Tantra. A popular story portrays her as a neglected queen who sought to regain her husband's affection through powerful magic. In her depiction, Kurukulla has a red Gold body, symbolizing passion, magnetism, and her connection to the Lotus family. She is often portrayed with one face and four arms, two of which hold a bow, representing her power to control and enchant. Her five-skeleton crown signifies her connection to wisdom and transformation, while her halo, encircled by skulls and flames, represents the fiery, transformative energy of her magical prowess. Kurukulla is typically shown stepping on a sun disc lotus base, symbolizing her dominion over the material and spiritual realms.
