Goddess Dukar

The two-armed Dukar, also known as Sitatapatra, is a rare and powerful form of the revered Buddhist goddess of protection. Unlike her more commonly depicted thousand-armed manifestation, the two-armed Dukar embodies a more focused yet equally potent energy of shielding and wisdom. Her name, meaning “White Parasol,” symbolizes the divine protection she grants to those who seek refuge in her. According to Buddhist scriptures, Sitatapatra manifested from the ushnisha (crown) of Buddha Shakyamuni as a luminous goddess, vowing to shield beings from harm and dispel negative forces. In this form, she holds her signature parasol, representing her ability to deflect all misfortunes, while her other hand is in the gesture of granting blessings. She is especially venerated for her ability to break through powerful obstacles, ensuring spiritual and worldly well-being. Her presence in Buddhist practice is believed to grant invincible protection, purify past karma, and cultivate wisdom, making her an essential deity for those on the path to enlightenment.
