These three doors have images of Tibetan Buddhist Deities within the Mahayana and Vajrayana Traditions. The deities are manifestations and embodiments of various aspect of enlightenment. I have them listed in the hierarchy in which they are representative of the aspects one embodies along the path. These are only three of many many deities, although the Prajnaparamita is the supreme mother of all. Simhamukha is one of many dakini's...my clients attraction to her is the wrathfulness with which she transforms negative energies into wisdom.

This is Green-Tara

This is Simamukha

This is Prajnaparamipa

Tara is the embodiment of the mother of compassionate wisdom. She is manifested in 21 Tara's. Her manifestation as the Green Tara represents youthful joy and vigorous activity.  
She is a Goddess of action.

Simhamukha is the wrathful lion head Dakini. She subdues negative female energies often sending them back to their source. "Spiritually, she represents the transformation of anger or wrath into enlightened awareness, and psychically or magically, she accomplishes the subduing and vanquishing provocations of negative energy (gdon) personified as demons and evil spirits.

Prajnaparamita is the embodiment of the perfection of wisdom. She is the mother of the Buddha. "The Prajnaparamita-Sutra is regarded as the holy mother that feeds the bodhisattva with the amrita (nectar) of prajna (transcendental wisdom), and guides him to paramita
(the other shore).
