Vishvamata: the Great Mother

Vishvamata is described as being female, white in colour, peaceful in appearance with one face and two hands. The right hand is in a gesture of generosity and extends across the right knee while holding the stem of a lotus flower. The left hand is held at the heart in a gesture of blessing and also holds the stem of a lotus flower. Both flowers blossom above the right and left shoulders. The two legs are folded in the crossed vajra posture. Vishvamata is also the consort of the meditational deity Kalachakra. In the Kalachakra system, Vishvamata can have a similar function to Prajnaparamita or Tara in representing the wisdom mother of all buddhas along with purifying all sickness and suffering.

Jews and Christians don't talk about Asherah much; her role being expresses as BVM? Orthodox like Sophia.
