Description :
In Sanskrit Chinna means "chopped-off," and masta means "head" — the goddess who has chopped off her own head is the sixth Mahavidya, or "transformation," of the Ten Great Transcendent Wisdoms of the Goddess Kali. Her left foot forward in battle, she holds her severed head and a knife. Naked, she drinks voluptuously the stream of the blood nectar flowing from her beheaded body. The jewel on her forehead is tied with a serpent. She has three eyes. Her breasts are adorned with lotuses. Inclined towards lust, she sits erect above the god of love, who shows signs of lustfulness. She looks like the red China rose. This devi is the Hindu tantrik equivalent to Vajra Vairochani. She is one of the Ten Mahavidyas – great female goddesses in the Bengali tantrik tradition. The others are Kali, Tara, Bhuvaneshvari, Bhairavi, Dhumavati, Bagala Siddhavidya, Matangi and Kamala, although these lists occasionally vary. Images show that her own severed head, which she holds in her hand, is drinking one stream of blood spurting from the arteries in her neck, while at her side are two naked Shaktis, each of whom drinks another stream of blood. In the bindu of her yantra, pictured at the top left, is the bija mantra Hum, and while outside the second triangle are the mantras Hum Phat.
