Simhamukha, or "Lion-Faced," is a powerful dakini character in Vajrayana Buddhism who represents the fury and fearlessness of a lion. She is associated with techniques that remove impediments, shield against harmful influences, and transform rage and resentment into wisdom and understanding. Simhamukha's teachings inspire practitioners to confront their anxieties and accept the transformational power of dakini wisdom, which leads to spiritual liberation and enlightenment.
