大红司命主（姊妹护法）
姊妹护法,相传世尊从兜率宫下凡的同时,在玛日泽尸林中,住着罗刹夫妻二人,夫留有铜辫,妻梳着血辫。二人生有珊瑚和麟蛋二子。刚出世不久,天地混乱,眼看父母被其他东西吃掉,赶紧向马哈迪佤和埃嘎匝直求救。从珊瑚蛋中生出红面护法,从麟蛋中生出世间天母,宣说《红司命主猛咒——解脱屠夫续》,非常厉害。阿阇黎贡巴坚在印度的红陵中将其伏藏下来,并讲授给阿匝日亚.尼沃扎巴。莲花生授予达恰佤大德,由宁.热巴坚掘藏出土,传于五世达赖等。

The protector deity Begtse Chen, also known as Chamsing (English: the Great Coat of Mail. Sanskrit name: Prana Atma), was popularized within the Sarma (new) Schools of Tibetan Buddhism by Marpa Lotsawa (1012-1096) and Sachen Kunga Nyingpo (1092-1158), the respective founders of the Marpa Kagyu and Sakya Traditions of Tibetan Buddhism. Colloquially Begtse is known as red Mahakala and ranks relatively high in the Sakya protector pantheon of Wisdom Deities. However, in the various Kagyu Traditions it is now rare to even find Begtse Chen. The protector was later adopted and incorporated into the Gelug School of Tsongkapa and subsequently became popular in Mongolia - predominantly following the Gelug tradition since the 17th century. The majority of the art objects in the gallery below were created within a Gelug context and many of them are of Mongolian origin.
