In "Tibetan Book of the Dead" , precisely on the sixth day of the visions of the peaceful deities, guardians of the four appear mandala. Are the capacities semicollerica deities that guard access to the four gates of the mandala and the related four cosmic.
Their appearance is human, the face is angry and possess the third eye, the eye of superior knowledge: Vijaya is the guardian guarding the eastern door white, united in polarity Tantric his wife Vajrankusi : Vijaya attributes are kapala and a bell, the door instead Vajrankusi an iron hook.
In correspondence with the southern gateway appears between red flames, standing on a lotus flower, the angry Yamantaka , yellow with his partner Vajrapasi : Yamantaka has in hands a noose and a bell.
The western gate is guarded by the couple Hayagriva , the keeper red and V ajrasrnkala . Hayagriva has a horse's head in her hair and holding an iron chain, or a club clinging to the bell and snakes. The couple green Amrtakundalin and Vajraghanta , oversees the northern door, armed with a vajra cross-shaped and bell.
Details aside, the Mandala is for me the most sophisticated system on a symbolic level created by man to represent the complexity of the world and the universe.
is inside the reference energy in four forms, is the transformation of matter; there are chemical elements, there is the matter that evolves and becomes life, there is the structure of DNA, there is a map of the time, there are times and seasons, there are functions of the mind; c ' is like the thought becomes history and how history turns to dust, there are complex psychological and become their society is the mirror of each, there is the interior and exterior, there is the 'expansion of the universe and its contraction is the creation and the entropy is the beginning and at the same time, the end.
