Vajravarahi Mandala Comparison

Jeff Watt compares two 13th century Taklung Kagyu Mandalas. At the center of both compositions is the female Buddhist figure Vajravarahi belonging to the Vajrayogini class of meditational deities. She is framed within a large double tetrahedron depicted as two intersecting triangles.
