【Living Buddha Lian-sheng Sheng-yen Lu Dharma Talk - Tiger Head Vajra Background and Key Cultivation Formula】
Tiger Head Vajra is the Golden Mother of the Jade Pond in wrathful form.
In Buddhism, Mahavairocana is in the center; Akshobhya, in the east; Amitabha, in the west; Ratnasambhava, in the south; and Amoghasiddhi, in the north. In Taoism, these five directions are associated with metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Therefore, Yellow Earth is in the center, Golden Mother is in the west, Wood Lord is in the east, Water Gold is in the north, and Fire Honorable is in the south. West, which belongs to metal, is guarded by White Tiger, White Tiger being Golden Mother of the Jade Pond. Golden Mother is herself the White Tiger. East belongs to wood, namely Cyan Dragon. Dragon is in the east, tiger in the west, vermilion bird in the front, and Gouchen in the back. Buddhism has Five Buddhas whereas Taoism has Five Golden Immortals guarding the five directions.

Tiger Head Vajra truly has her own historical background. In the book Ancient Myths and Legends, she is stately and formidable.
As soon as Golden Mother of the Jade Pond inserts the Yusheng held in her hand into her hair, she instantly transforms into a mighty tiger.

The Golden Mother and the Tiger Head Vajra are one and the same. The power of Tiger Head Vajra is equal to that of Golden Mother. They are equally significant.

Golden Mother of the Jade Pond belongs to a Dalou Golden Immortal. Her Tiger Head Vajra belongs to a Golden Immortal. Therefore, the power of Tiger Head Vajra is different from the regular tiger deity.
Regular tiger masters are tiger gods with the spirit of a tiger descending into the body of a tiger master. This is why they are called tiger master or tiger god. A tiger master is only a guardian god for a temple and has the ability to deter all invasions by evil spirits with his tiger awesome power.
Tiger Head Vajra, however, can protect from any and all kinds of disasters and calamities!

Tiger Head Vajra can bite unrighteous and unruly spirits and is able to ward off disasters and inflictions. She is able to bite all gods of plague and pestilence including the Five Gods of Plague. Therefore, Tiger Head Vajra is not only able to protect one's residence, but is also able to protect manufactures, ranches, aquaculture, an entire country, enrich with wealth, and obtain water.
The power of the Tiger Head Vajra is extraordinary!
She can also summon wind and rain. 
She has a command flag in her hand. Golden Mother of the Jade Pond holds a command flag and it is this command flag which she holds. In ancient times, a yellow flag held by someone was called an apricot yellow flag. If this apricot yellow flag has Golden Mother of the Jade Pond's decree on it, then it will be extraordinary. It can summon wind and rain, that is, when she commanding the wind to come, the wind will come; commanding rain to fall, the rain will fall. This is called summoning wind and rain.
Hence, if one enshrines this image of the Golden Mother of the Jade Pond riding on the Tiger Head Vajra in the home shrine, all disasters will be be eradicated.

When evaluating feng shui of a yang residence, a house, or a yin residence, a grave, in places with unfavorable feng shui, one can enshrine the Tiger Head Vajra who then will bite away any evil invasions. When there is something bad, as soon as Tiger Head Vajra descends all will naturally turn out well. This is the benefit.

Tiger Head Vajra Mantra is 「Om。jin-mu。sid-dhi。hum。hum。pei。」Her mudra is to interlace the fingers of both hands inward. Straighten both thumbs and keep them apart outward like a tiger head. You are able to practice the dharma of this deity with her image, mantra, and mudra available.
