Dukar

Victorious White Parasol

Dukar is the Tibetan name for the White Umbrella deity which can also be translated as “The Victorious White Parasol.” Her parasol indicates her ability to protect sentient beings from natural catastrophes, diseases, and so forth. She is white in color, because the principal means by which she accomplishes this function is the enlightenment energy of pacification.

Mantra

OM SIT TA TA PA TREY HUM PHET

Dukar is a female form of Chenrezig, the Bodhisattva of Compassion. Like him in his elaborate form, she also has a thousand eyes that watch over living beings, and a thousand arms that protect and assist them. Thus she symbolizes the power of active compassion.  Recitation of her mantra is a good protection from fear.
