Citipati is a highly regarded and respected protective deity in Tibetan Buddhism, known for its intimidating and daunting appearance. The deity is depicted as two intertwined skeletal figures, one male and one female, who are engaged in a wild and frenzied dance. Flames surround the figures, symbolizing the constant change and transience that is a part of the world.
Tibetan Buddhists view Citipati as a guard of the Buddha's teachings and a formidable defense against negative influences and malevolent entities. The deity is often depicted with frightening features such as sharp teeth, bony fingers, and piercing eyes, meant to scare off potential dangers.
