Fierce Deity Merch

This illustration theme is fierceness. The condition of a person when violent emotions overshadow the magnificence of the human mind. Just like the gauzy clouds veiling the moon. And the question is whether a person can get out? Will the clouds pass by, and the moon appears, or it will completely obscure the light of reason? Like in the concept of Japanese Noh theatre, the fierce cat spirit mask expresses violent emotions. On the one hand, it is frightening, and on the other hand, it is Yūgen - the transcendent beauty of human suffering.

Like in the concept of Noh theatre, the three masks symbolize different reasons and different degrees of a person's fierceness. This design shows the borderline state and the edge that a person absorbed by violent emotions passes through. On the one hand, it is frightening, and on the other hand, it is Yūgen - the transcendent beauty of human suffering.

Yamantaka, in northern Buddhism, is one of the eight fierce protective deities (dharmapalas). Worship of dharmapalas was initiated in the 8th century by the magician-saint Padmasambhava, who is said to have conquered the malevolent deities in Tibet and forced them to take an oath promising to protect Buddhists and the Buddhist faith. Mahakala is another of the Tibetan protector deities or dharmapalas.
