Muut tiedot

The Sanskrit name for the White Umbrella Deity is Ushnisha Sitatapatra [Tib: dü kar] which can also be translated as "The Victorious White Parasol." Her parasol indicates her ability to protect sentient beings from natural catastrophes, diseases, and so forth. She is white in color, because the principal means by which she accomplishes this function is the enlightenment energy of pacification.

Ushnisha Sitatapatra is a female form of Avalokiteshvara, the Bodhisattva of Compassion. Like him in his elaborate form, she also has a thousand eyes that watch over living beings, and a thousand arms that protect and assist them. Thus she symbolizes the power of active compassion.

In the 18th Century Tibetans frequently used the Indian Pala style (8th-12th Century) as models for their own sculptures.
