Palden Lhamo is main Dharma protectors in Tibetan Buddhism. Her eyes represent past, present and future. She is dark blue in colour representing her attainment of great bliss- the realization of emptiness. Her right hand is in the sky holding a skull cup representing the destruction of obstacles. She carries a human bag full of diseases that she collects from those who invoke her. Her legs are in a semi-relaxed posture and chains connect one ankle to the other. She is the personal protector of the Panchen Lama and of all fourteen incarnations of the Dalai Lama.
