She is a yidam, or meditational deity, closely associated with the sun and often depicted riding a boar or a chariot drawn by seven boars, symbolizing her swift and unstoppable movement through illusion. While an independent deity, she is sometimes linked as an attendant of Tara. Her practice is especially valued for its powerful protection, shielding practitioners from harm, obstacles, and deception while illuminating the path with clarity and awareness.
