Chinnamasta Thangka Chinnamasta is the Hindu Goddess of transformation. She is the sixth of the Dasa Mahavidya, the wisdom Goddesses, and is also known as Chhinnamastika or Prachanda Chandika. She is depicted holding her own head, which she has just cut off. She is known as the self-decapitated Goddess and also as Prachanda Chandika. She is a form of Shakti with ferocious power. Chinnamasta actually means, “severed head”, and in Hindu dharma, she is often correlated with fearsome nature.Buddhists believe she is closely related to Chinnamunda, the severe-headed form of Vajrayogini, the Tibetan Buddhist goddess. In the shrines and depictions, she is mostly nude with disheveled hair with blood covering her body. She stands over a naked couple, who are said to be Kama Deva and Rati. Rati – the Goddess of sexual desire – and her husband the Kama – the God of love. She wears a serpent with a sacred thread and garland of skulls. Blood spills out of her neck in the depiction, and it is being savored by her female attendants – Dakini and Varini. She holds her own head on the left hand and a Khatri on her right through which she cut her head off. In the ancient textbooks, she is only 16 with full-breast and blue lotus near her heart. Chinnamasta is symbolic of life, death, and sex – the three forms of transformation and the three parts of the cycle. Her stance could be the victory over the samsara – the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth. Her depiction of how she stands over the couple signifies a person’s control over sexual desire, while others consider it to be the embodiment of sexual energy.
