About Sengdongma

Sengdongma is the great, ferocious dakini who is highly effective in clearing spirit disturbances and black magic. Her quick, intense and vibrant energy overcomes the most pervasive and malignant obstacles, especially of the unseen kind.

She and her entourage of 60 million strong provide powerful and effective protection against negative conditions, illnesses and misfortune, particularly those specifically sent against the petitioner. She is also excellent for destroying obstacles to Dharma practice ensuring the tantric practitioner’s health, wellness and spiritual progress.

Sengdongma has one face and two arms, and her body is dark blue in colour. Her wrathful lion face is white and slightly turned to the right. Her right hand holds aloft a ritual chopper and her left holds a white skull cup filled with blood to her heart. She carries a khatvanga staff in the crook of her left arm.

She is adorned with a tiara of five skulls, bone ornaments, a necklace of fifty freshly severed heads and wears a tiger skin skirt. She stands on her left leg with her right leg drawn up in a dancing posture in the middle of a blazing fire of pristine awareness.
