A monk dancer wears the mask of Drichhu, the Parrot, a retainer of Mahakali, one of Bhutan's most important female protective deities. This Lhamoi Drubchen dance is dedicated to the vast accomplishments of Palden Lhamo, the "Glorious Goddess" emanation of Mahakali and principal female guardian deity of Mahayana Buddhism. She is a wrathful deity, an enlightened being, a terrifying female protector, and the fierce aspect of wisdom. The Parrot helps Palden Lhamo expel negative forces from the world while nourishing inner peace, community peace, and world peace.
