Citipati is a powerful and revered protector deity in Tibetan Buddhism, known for its fierce and fearsome appearance. The deity is depicted as two skeletal figures, one male and one female, whose limbs are intertwined in a wild and frenzied dance. The figures are surrounded by a halo of flames, which is said to represent the impermanence and change that is an inherent part of the world.

In Tibetan Buddhist belief, Citipati is seen as a protector of the teachings of the Buddha, and is revered as a powerful guardian against negative forces and malevolent spirits. The deity is often depicted with fearsome attributes, such as sharp teeth, bony fingers, and piercing eyes, which are meant to intimidate and ward off potential threats.
