Simhamukha, Dakini (Tibetan: seng ge dong chen kha dro ma, English: the Dakini Having a Lion Face) along with two attendants; from the lineage of Bari Lotsawa.At the top left is the primordial buddha Vajradhara, blue in colour, with one face and two hands holding a vajra and bell, seated in vajra posture. To the right is a lama wearing monastic robes and performing the gesture of 'giving protection' with the right hand and the left supports a long-life vase in the lap; seated, wearing the traditional yellow pandita hat of the Gelugpa School.The dakini Simhamukha is a tutelary deity arising out of the Chakrasamvara cycle of Tantras and belongs to the Anuttarayoga 'wisdom' classification. The Sarma tradition Simhamukha is unrelated to the deity of the same name and appearance in the Nyingma 'terma' (treasure) traditions. In that tradition, of the many forms of Padmasambhava, Simhamukha is a secret form of Guru Rinpoche.Gelugpa Lineage: Vajradhara, Dakini Simhamukha, Vajrasana, Bari Lotsawa Rinchen Drag, Sachen Kunga Nyingpo (1092-1158) and the five Holy Superiors of Sakya, Rongpa Dorje Gyaltsen, Sanggye Yeshe, Yak De Panchen, Gyalwa Tsongkapa (1357-1419), etc.This painting is a good example of Tibetan iconographic art. There are no overt, or overwhelming, Nepali or Chinese influences. The figures are outlined clearly with strong lines, shape, and added colour. The background is simple and does not detract from the subject of the painting.Jeff Watt 6-98
