Introduction to Tormas
Tormas are made of barley flour and decorated with butter buttons. On the other hand, metals such as copper, silver, and gold are used. Metal-based tormas have the advantage of being more durable than perishable food tormas. A metal torma can be used for various purposes, including symbolic weapons in repulsion rituals. Tormas are also frequently depicted in paintings on the temples' walls dedicated to the wrathful deities. Torma offerings like the Mahakala and Shri Devi are typically used to appease ferocious Dharmapala.
