Subterranean Goddesses (brtan ma)

An important class of twelve indigenous Tibetan spirits who personify the mighty snow ranges of Tibet and who are encorporated within the outer retinue (phyi 'khor) of the fifty-eight wrathful deities. Foremost among them are Kong-btsun de-mo (associated with Mt Namchak Barwa), rMa-chen spom-ra (associated wih Mt Amnye Machen), rDo-rje spyan-gcig-ma (associated with Mt Everest), rDo-rje kun-grags-ma (associated with Mt Nyenchen Tanglha), and rDo-rje kun-ti bzang (associated with Mt Nojin Gangzang). For a number of comparative lists derived from different traditions, see Nebesky-Wojkowitz, Oracles and Demons of Tibet, pp. 181-188. GD (from the Glossary to Tibetan Elemental Divination Paintings)
