In Tibetan iconography, Palden Lhamo rides a wild donkey and her ferocious appearance subjugates the energies that hinder the spiritual path. Her practice facilitates liberation from attachment and helps to develop female wisdom, strength, equanimity and a sense of justice. She reminds us that in order to become psychologically strong and escape from personal and collective samsara we must honor the wisdom of the divine feminine and reconcile with Mother Nature.
Palden Lhamo or Magsor Ghialmo is the wrathful aspect of the female Buddha Saraswati, the wrathful and protective manifestation of Tara and also a form of Mahakali, the feminine aspect of Avalokiteshvara.
Historically, she is one of the main protectors of the Buddha’s teaching.
