作明佛母，為佛教密宗掌管權威及懷法的本尊，亦被認為是二十一度母之紅色度母化現，藏傳佛教力量女神。佛母一面表法性一味，三目象征通達三世，四臂表四種成就或四無量心，怒容表調伏四魔。

本尊造像金發怒沖，以五骷髏為冠，耳垂以骨飾莊嚴，三目圓睜，卷舌，露齒。左第壹手張弓，右第壹手執箭作射勢，右第二手以期克印執鉤上揚，左第二手以期克印下放，身披飛舞瓔珞，右腳屈曲，左腳鶴立，左踏赤裸外道魔女之心口上，以日輪為座。

Kurukulla is a Tantric Buddhist deity in charge of authority and dharma, and it is also considered the manifestation of the Red Drolma among the 21 Drolmas, as well as the goddess of power in the Tibetan Buddhism. Her face symbolizes the unity of dharmata (the true nature of reality); her three eyes stands for her understanding of the past, present and future; her four arms represents four achievements or ultimate spirits; and her angry look signifies her capacity to surrender the four evils.
Wearing a crown decorated with five skulls and bone earrings, she features upswept golden hair, three wide-open eyes, a rolled tongue and exposed teeth. One of her left hands holds a bow, and the corresponding right hand clenches an arrow ready to be shot. Another right hand is in upwards tarjani mudra and the corresponding right one in downwards tarjani mudra. Wearing a fluttering keyura, Kurukulla stamps on the heart of a foreign she-devil by her left leg solely, with the right one bent and the solar disk as the pedestal.
