Cittipati
Cittipati, also known as the "Lord of the Dead" or "Guardians of the Charnel Grounds," is a significant deity in Tibetan Buddhism, symbolizing the duality of death and rebirth. Often depicted as a dancing couple, Cittipati embodies the impermanence of life and the importance of transcending ego through awareness. Traditionally represented as skeletal figures, they perform a joyful dance that signifies the liberation from the cycle of samsara, or rebirth. Cittipati is associated with the transformative power of wisdom, which dispels ignorance and illusion. As protectors of spiritual teachings, they serve as reminders of mortality, encouraging practitioners to embrace the transient nature of existence and focus on spiritual growth. In Tibetan rituals, Cittipati is invoked for guidance in navigating the complexities of life and death, making them integral to the understanding of impermanence in Buddhist philosophy.
