The Most Fierce Protector Deity in Tibetan Buddhism
Yamantaka, known in Tibetan as ​​"Dorje Jigje"​​ (དོ་རྗེ་འཇིགས་བྱེད།) and in Sanskrit as ​Yamantaka​ (meaning "Destroyer of Death"), is one of the most important ​wrathful deities​ in the ​Anuttarayoga Tantra​ tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. Particularly revered in the ​Gelug school, Yamantaka is considered the ​wrathful manifestation of Manjushri (Bodhisattva of Wisdom)​, embodying both ​transcendent wisdom​ and ​ferocious power.
