Baglamukhi or Bagalā (Sanskrit: बगलामुखी) is one of the Mahavidyas (Great Wisdom/Science). Maa Baglamukhi is a revered Hindu goddess, considered to be the eighth Mahavidya in the Dasha Mahavidya tradition. She is known as the deity of power, protection, and victory over obstacles. The name Baglamukhi symbolizes her power to restrain or control negative forces and enemies.

According to Hindu Puranas, Maa Baglamukhi is the embodiment of the potent force that can immobilize and control evil forces. She is often depicted with a golden complexion, dressed in yellow clothes and ornaments, signifying her association with the color yellow. The yellow color is integral to her worship rituals, symbolizing auspiciousness, bountifulness, and purity.

Devotees worship Maa Baglamukhi with yellow offerings while dressed in yellow and seated on a yellow cloth. They use a yellow turmeric bead rosary in the japa (repetition) of her names or mantra (invocation). The yellow turmeric is also associated with marriage, adding to her title as Pitambhara Devi.

Maa Baglamukhi is believed to grant her devotees the power to overcome obstacles, gain victory in legal matters, and protect against adversaries. Her divine intervention is sought to nullify the negative effects of enemies and to bring peace and prosperity.
