Maa Baglamukhi — The Paralyzer of Evil

ॐ

Maa Baglamukhi is the 8th of the ten Mahavidyas — the divine cosmic powers in Tantric tradition. Her name comes from 'Bagala' (bridle) and 'Mukhi' (face), representing her power to seize and paralyze the tongue and actions of enemies and evil forces.

She is depicted holding a club in her right hand to beat a demon while pulling his tongue with her left. Seated on a golden throne in the ocean of nectar, dressed in yellow — the color of turmeric, sacred in her worship.

🔱

Worshipping Maa Baglamukhi grants victory in legal disputes, protection from enemies, removal of obstacles, and mastery over speech and actions.
