Yogamabara Mandala - especially popular with the Tibetan Sakya tradition
Yogambara is a male tantric Buddhist deity. The Yogambara mandla is a so-called mother-Tantra of the highest Anuttarayoga Tantra class. The tantras of the four great classes were systematized in Tibet by Bu ston («butön») (1290–1364): Kriya Tantras, Carya Tantras, Yoga Tantras, and Anuttarayoga Tantras. The Yogambara Mandala forms part of the Nispannayogavali (NSP) compiled by Mahapan ita Abhayakaragupta of the Vikramasila monastery during the early 12th century.
