Load of yama mask
The "Lord of Yama" mask represents Yama, the Lord of Death in Buddhist mythology. Yama is a significant figure in both Bhutanese and Tibetan Buddhist traditions, where he is considered the ruler of the underworld and the judge of the dead. Despite his fearsome appearance, Yama is not viewed as evil but rather as a necessary force who oversees the process of death and rebirth, ensuring that karmic justice is maintained.
