BAJRAYOGINI

Bajrayogini is an important and popular Goddess. She has three forms and conforms to two distinct types.
In one form she has no head, but carries it in her hand. In another, she has her head intact. The former form is identical in appearance with the Hindu goddess Chhinamasta of the group of Mahavidyas, She is always accompanied by two yoginis by her sides. She is yellow in colour and carries her own head in her left hand. The head was severed by herself with her own knife held in her right hand. She is projected in the nude, her right leg stretched and the left leg bent down.
Another form of Bajrayogini is red in colour. She is no less terrible than the headless form, surrounded on all sides by the terrible burning grounds. She stands in a ferocious mood and rides on top of a corpse. She is nude and has three red eyes. With round, contorted eye-brows, a protruding belly and tongue, she carries the kapala in the left hand and the Bajra in the right. The Khawanga hangs from her left shoulder. This form of Bajrayogini is similar in many respects to the form of Nairatma and Vajravarahi.. Also see Bajrojogini
