In the Tibetan language, the term Dakini is Khandroma (mkha’-‘gro-ma), which means “she who traverses the sky” or “she who moves through space”; it is also referred to as “sky dancer” or “sky walker.”
Iconographically, their bodies are depicted in sinuous, dancing postures. It is worth noting that although Dakinis are always represented as naked and beautiful, they are not primarily seen as sexual symbols, but rather as symbols of the naked nature of the mind, free from all obscurations. The movements of their dance represent the movements and thoughts of consciousness in the flow of the mind and the Dharmakaya as the spontaneous blossoming of the Buddha Mind, or Rigpa. Inhabitants of the sky, the Dakinis preserve the words of Padmasambhava and deliver them at the opportune moment to whomever is meant to hear them. It is said that on the tenth day after the full moon they are especially present among us.

Padmasambhava (པདྨ་སཾཆྱོ་བ) means “The Lotus-born”. According to tradition, he was miraculously born in a lake on what is now the border of India and Pakistan. He was invited to Tibet by King Trisong Detsen to help establish Buddhism and overcome spiritual obstacles associated with the local religions. He is considered a second Buddha, especially in the Himalayas (Tibet, Bhutan, Nepal), and is credited with concealing termas (hidden teachings) to be revealed in future times at the appropriate moments. An enlightened master, revealer of teachings that transform the mind and dispel obstacles. |
