Nairātmyā

Nairātmyā or Dakméma (Wylie: bdag med ma), translated as "Lady of Emptiness" or "She Who Has Realized Selflessness," is a female buddha.

It was also the name of the wife of Marpa Lotsawa.

Buddhism teaches that to Template:Wiki ourselves as Template:Wiki, separate selves, is an illusion.

For in truth we are connected with all that exists in a vast web of communion (without self).

Nairatmya embodies this realization (also called pudgala-nairatmya, the impermanent-selfness of persons).

Nairātmyā's body is blue, the Template:Wiki of infinite space, Template:Wiki the Template:Wiki expanse of her awareness.

Like the element of space, she flows through the universe without impediment, for she has transcended ego-centered existence.

Her eyes blaze with the wisdom of one who understands the Template:Wiki and depths of life.

She raises her kartika skyward, poised to sever negative mind-states wherever they arise.

In her kapala, she pulverizes illusions and returns them to their original state - a mere play of Template:Wiki, a rainbow of energy, shimmering in empty space.

Hevajra tantra

    She is enlightened spontaneity in Template:Wiki form,
    A supremely blissful divine yogini.
    She is the mansion of enlightened awareness,
    Possessor of the five Buddha-wisdoms ....
    She is pure, universal awareness,
    The sovereign of the mandala.
    She is Nairatmya Yogini,
    The essence of ultimate reality.
