The wrathful goddess Drashi Lhamo is considered one of the minor forms of Palden Lhamo. She is very much well known for bestowing blessing of wealth. She is worshipped mainly at Drashi Gon Temple in Lhasa, Tibet. This ancient shrine sits midway between the massive Sera Monastery and the Barkor circuit of central Lhasa. The Barkor is the large circumambulation circuit surrounding the Jokhang Cathedral, where the great Jowo Shakyamuni statue is enshrined.

Aside from Drashi Gon Temple, Sera Monastery also has a small protector chapel or gonkhang in the Barkor circuit. Another vibrant clay statue of Drashi Lhamo is enshrined in this chapel, alongside other protectors of the monastery.

The name ‘Drashi Gon‘ reflects the number of resident monks at the Temple, who were handpicked from the nearby Sera Monastery. ‘Drashi’ literally means ‘Four Monks’ as there were always four monks stationed at the temple at all times.
According to local lore, the four monks who resided at the temple all had visions of this protectress flying in the sky towards China, coming from the direction of India. Through their earnest requests, they were successful in inviting the goddess to descend to the temple. From then on, they made daily offerings to her and she is said to have remained at the temple to this day.

The female protectress Drashi Lhamo has a fierce, wrathful expression. She has dark blue skin, one face and two hands. She has three bulging bloodshot eyes glaring at the enemies of the Buddhist teachings. She exposes her four canine teeth and extends her long red tongue out and downwards. Her rolled out tongue is remarkably similar to the famous Hindu mother goddess, Kali.
