In the Dzogchen tradition, where she is seen as a fiery guardian of the teachings, Ekajati is a well-known person in Tibetan Buddhism. Ekajati, sometimes referred to as Blue Tara, is regarded as a dakini, a feminine spirit that embodies enlightened energy and wisdom. As the protector of the hidden teachings, Ekajati is essential to the Dzogchen tradition because she maintains the teachings' integrity and purity. She is portrayed as having only one eye, signifying her persistent dedication to preserving Dzogchen's profound insights. The angry visage of Ekajati represents her ferocious will to shield practitioners from hindrances on their way to enlightenment.

Invoking Ekajati, practitioners want to clear barriers, acquire insight, and comprehend the Dzogchen teachings more thoroughly. Rituals, prayers, and visualisations are all part of her practice, which is to connect with her transformational energy. Ekajati, the guardian of Dzogchen, is a living example of the ferocious compassion that preserves the profound wisdom passed down in this lineage of Tibetan Buddhism.
