 Dakini Ngan Ne Ma
The word dakini is translated as women who dance in the sky or interpretable as women who revel in the freedom of emptiness.
Here too, the dakini Ngan ne ma, believed to possess the "great magical talent of subduing the enemies of Dharma by performing her special dance of compassion that transforms the antagonists," dances her grotesque dance in the air, where howling wolves and growling lions float in attendance amidst smoke-filled curls.

 Dakini Land
The concept of the Dakini is highly developed in Tibetan Buddhism and many images and stories of the Dakini come from that culture.
In particular the images of the Dakini here come from the Tibetan Buddhist tradition and seen out of context they are open to misinterpretation.
It is my belief however that if one has a sincere wish to understand the Dakini and is open to Vajra Yogini the viewing of her form alone can bring great benefit and can cause a being to transform her life in a positive manner.

 Encountering the Dakini
This simple maidservant is a messenger of her genre, the dakini in Tibetan Buddhism.
Kumari represents the most significant class of enlightened female figures in Tibetan Buddhism, the wisdom dakini, In yogic literature and lore, she and her sisters appear to practitioners, men and women alike, during rituals and during retreat to give teaching, direction, and challenge in meditation practice.
Certainly there have been fine preliminary studies of the dakini, beginning with the scholarship of David Snellgrove, who traced the development of the dakini from her "gruesome and obscene" origins to her "more gentle aspects" in Tibetan depictions as symbols of transcendent wisdom.

Woman is the Dakini and is to be worshipped as such.
In Tibetan the word Khandroma (dakini) is reserved as an epithet for the consorts of Lamas, esteemed yogins' consorts or for realised yoginis and tulkumas (female incarnations).

 The Dakini Tantra - Introduction
It could be debated that Dakini Tantra, with its total focus on the Yoni and Goddess (even beyond that found in the school refered to as Yoni Tantra), fits closer to Shakta or Shaktism (one of the 5 aspects of Hinduism).
It is well recorded that in most ancient times, ina hidden corner of the land that was to become Tibet, the Dakini had a Sacred Domain ~ a land pure of males ~ and it is from their ancient realm that the Dakini first shared the art of Tantra.
It has two prime distinctions that set it apart from traditional Tantra: It is a thread that connects to the source point, the Tantra practised at the very dawn of humankind; It shares the same sensitivity and purpose (an awakening and empowerment of the female participants) of the Tantric rites of the Matriarchal era.

 Dakini and Yogini: Comparison
The Indian and Tibetan pantheon is full of female deities and demons that are variously classified as dakinis or yoginis.
Such Jungian-style interpretation, however, makes no sense anymore when one realizes that many of these goddesses seem to belong to both categories, or - the other conclusion - that these Indo-Tibetan categories are not as clearly defined as the Western mind often wishes or demands.
It is therefore that one can find, for example, that the famous Vajra Yogini belongs to the group of semi-wrathful dakinis.
