This talk explains the specific importance of Vajrayogini. She is important enough that we devote a monthly practice to her. There are thousands of tantric deities in Tibetan Buddhism – peaceful, wrathful, male, female, and different colors. Vajrayogini is one of the accessible of the deities. In Tibet, thousands of practitioners have visualized her in their short lives and become great Siddhas, regardless of gender, vows taken, etc. She has an especially strong connection to the Sakyapa, as her practice comes from the Thirteen Golden Deities of Sakya. Her lineage and the importance of keeping the samaya will be explained, as will information on how to practice.
