Introduction of Altar Box

Chitipati, also known as Citipati, is a prominent deity within Tibetan Buddhism, particularly within the Vajrayana or Tantric tradition. Often depicted as a dancing skeletal figure, Chitipati is referred to as the "Lord of the Cemetery" or the "Cemetery Guardian." This representation symbolizes life's impermanence and the inevitability of death, which are fundamental themes in Buddhist teachings.
