Dakini

A ḍākinīis a type of female spirit or demon in Hinduism and Buddhism. The concept of the ḍākinī somewhat differs depending on the context and the tradition. Whereas in both Hindu texts and East Asian esoteric Buddhism, the ḍākinīs are a race of female demons who fed on the flesh and/or vital essence of humans, in Nepalese and Tibetan Buddhism, ḍākinīs are what can be best described as fierce-looking female embodiments of enlightened energy. In addition, the term may also denote human women with a certain amount of spiritual development.

In Japan, the ḍākinīs - held in the East Asian Buddhist tradition to have been subdued and converted to Buddhism by the buddha Vairocana under the guise of the god Mahākāla (Daikokuten in Japanese) - were merged into a single goddess called 'Dakiniten' , who after becoming syncretized with the native agricultural deity Inari, became linked to fox (kitsune)

Centuries-Old Lost-Wax Metal Casting

Each sculpture at Handmade Handicraft is crafted using the ancient cire-perdue (lost-wax) technique, a craft perfected over a millennium by the Newar artisans of Patan. The process begins with sculpting beeswax and Himalayan tree resin by hand. A multi-layered clay mold is formed around the wax, which is melted away in the furnace, creating a void that is filled with molten red copper or bronze.
