Meaning: 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 hibiscus.


Sixth in Dus-Mahavidya. The Self-Decapitated Goddess" whose head is severed, easily identified by her fearsome image. A Tantric Goddess and a ferocious aspect of Devi or Divine Mother.

The name "Chhinnamasta" is compound of two words: the first is "Chinna" meaning isolated and "Masta" meaning head. Thus, Chhinnamasta is the one who is without head or a severed head. She severed her head by own and hold in one hand, as a symbol of self sacrificing. She is also known with other names like Chhinnamastika Prachanda Chandika.

Her appearance is fully different form other Goddess, as a fearsome, awful or furious aspect of of divine mother, among ten Maha-Vidyas. Character wise, She combines all the three Gunas, namely, "Satwa, Rajas and Tamo", and hence is well known as "Trigunmayee" (one who have all three types of natural properties or Gunas). She represents the change of cycle in the Universe. Everything that is in the Universe is related to this cycle. When the deterioration is more than the creation, it causes her prominence and the process is reversed and once again,creation is more than deterioration.
