'''Yamantaka''' (Skt. ''Yamāntaka''; Tib. [[གཤིན་རྗེ་གཤེད་]], [[Wyl.]] ''gshin rje gshed'') — literally 'The Destroyer of [[Yama]], the Lord of Death', is a wrathful form of [[Manjushri]].  

==Forms==
===Sarma===
In the [[Sarma]] tradition, the Yamantaka Tantras are classified as the second category of [[Father Tantra]], known as the Anger class. There are sometimes said to be three forms of Yamantaka: [[Red Yamari]], [[Black Yamari]] and [[Vajrabhairava]]. 

===In the Kagyé===

Yamantaka also appears as one of the eight deities of [[Kagyé]] (see image) , where he is also known as Manjushri Body (''<nowiki>'</nowiki>jam dpal sku''). The instructions related to this form of Yamantaka are based on the so-called "[[four chakras]]": secret or abiding chakra, chakra of existence, cutting chakra, and chakra of manifestation.<ref>See Kongtrul (2005), pp. 321-322</ref>

In the [[Longchen Nyingtik]], the Yamantaka practice related to [[Palchen Düpa]] is called "Overpowering Yama, Lord of Death" ('''jam dpal gshin rje 'chi bdag zil gnon'').

===Other===
Yamantaka is also one of the [[four male gate keepers]].
