Begin with the recorded work.
Tantric deity is the shared subject class; it does not mean every image is wrathful. This selection includes peaceful Vajrasattva images alongside forceful Vajrabhairava and sword-bearing forms. Confirmed figures are named directly, while narrower catalogue identities that remain unsettled keep broader descriptions.

About this category
Does tantric deity always mean wrathful?
No. Peaceful and wrathful are visual modes within the broader class. This selection includes peaceful Vajrasattva images as well as forceful forms, so each work must be read through its own posture, attributes and record.
Are all five works identified to the same level?
No. Vajrasattva and Vajrabhairava are named where confirmed; the sword-bearing figures retain record-based broader descriptions. Their individual pages state that distinction directly.
