Guhyasamaja or 'Secret Assembly' belongs to the class of tutelary deities in the pantheon of Vajrayana Buddhism. He is the deification of the Guhyasamaja tantra, an important Tantric treatise, believed to be one of the first Sanskrit texts to be translated into Tibetan during the 8th century. The three-faced, six-armed deity embraces his consort Sparsavajra and holds the diamond sceptre and priests-bell in his principle hands.
