The images of enlightened beings in Tibetan Buddhism are as rich as our own imagination can go. All images exist with our own minds and if we focus on them, as if we were looking for a long period of time at the mirror, our perception shifts. If we practice such contemplation with the right effort and motivation, it can be a path for liberation.

Vajrayogini is a semi-wrathful dakini, who is also a Yidam, or a meditational image. Her body is red magnetising beings to her enlighten activity like the flame attracts the month. In her fire we can experience deep transformation facing specially our attachments and desires. Passion is a powerful energy and she teaches how to keep it, enhance and point it to true liberation. Turning poison in the antidote. 

Vajrayogini has the power to defeat all negative forces and demonic beings, assuming that their true self is empty. This applies in particular to the destructive emotions such as anger, hatred, greed, selfishness, attachment, and ignorance.
