SONG TITLE ON MUSIC STREAMING, song title: “Lion Faced Dakini Protection Mantra” Available on most streaming platforms.

✅ Here, 3 Gems Band chants the mantra in a fast, driving beat, a powerful form, almost shamanic in style. Why?

✅ Dakinis dance in joyful bliss to overcome ignorance. The opponent power to the five poisons, which result in all our obstacles, demons and enemies is laughter and blissful joy of Dakinis.

✅ Lion Faced Dakini dances to the joyful drum in this mantra song, expressing joyful bliss of her accomplishments in triumphing over the, dancing in the face of anger and hate.

✅ Lion Faced Dakini, Simhamukha roars but joyful — her laughing voice expressing the joyful bliss of a dakini, whose activity overcomes the poison of attachment, craving, and obsessive passions.

✅ Lion Faced Dakini overcomes the poison of greed with third wisdom eye wide open, glaring at the demon of greed.

✅ Lion-Faced Dakini’s flaying knife with vajra handle in her right hand cuts away our delusions, flaying our poisons of ignorance.

✅ Lion’Faced Dakini’s mantra vibrates with her bliss and joy, dissolving away all hate, anger, attachment, ignorance, envy, and greed.

Since it’s purpose is to avert negative forces, malicious thoughts, evil and threats, her syllables reonate with this fierce bliss. We present here with beautiful meditative images.

Lama Tsultrim of the Tara Mandala International Buddhist Community described Simhamukha “as a powerful remover of obstacles and as Queen of the Dakinis.”

Her mantra is considered the ultimate protection from evil, obstacles, negative karma, supernatural, black magic. This super wrathful emanation of Tara.

Generally, to chant her mantra, the main requirement, as always, is Bodhichitta and the intention to benefit all sentient beings. (Some suggestions on “volume” and chanting outloud below. This is not a mantra for chanting jouyously out loud.)

PERMISSIONS: Several teachers have indicated this mantra is fine to chant as long as you frontally offer and supplicate (Simhamukha in front of you, with you prostrating or making offerings; i.e. no self-visualizations). In this context it is a a protective supplication to the Enlightened Dakini Simhamukha.
