19th C. Tibetan Gilt Brass Simhamukha & Dakini Statue

Item Details

Description

Central Asia, Tibet, ca. 19th to early 20th century CE. A pair of gilt brass wrathful Dakini deities dancing upon a pair of prone figures on an elongated pedestal, one is Simhamukha Dakini and the other may be Vajra Dakini. Simhamukha is the fierce tantric deity, her face is a Snow Lion with a fanged mouth, wild eyes, flaming hair decorated with skulls, a ritual Kartika knife in the upraised hand, and a skull cap bowl filled with blood in the other. The other 4-armed dakini also has a lion-like head with a skull headdress. The upper hands gesturing the karana mudra and the lower two hold a flower and possibly another skull. A dakini is a type of female spirit in Buddhism that can appear in various shapes that vary from repulsive, fierce demons, or a peaceful human form. The base has a plate capping the hollow interior, perhaps sealing in paper prayers or offerings. Size: 6.75" L x 2" W x 7.25" H (17.1 cm x 5.1 cm x 18.4 cm)

In Tibetan Buddhism, Simhamukha is a wrathful deity associated with wisdom and learning and invoked in certain tantric practices and rituals aimed at dispelling obstacles, negative energies, and spiritual hindrances. "Simhamukha" is Sanskrit comes from "Simha" meaning lion, and "Mukha" means face since she has a Snow Lion visage, the Snow Lion is mythical and auspicious creature of compassion and wisdom. The Kartika knife is designed to be used for ritual flaying in Tantric ceremonies.
