These next pics are all varieties of what are called 'liberation upon seeing'.
Looking at them plants the seeds for various positive long-term results.
Some of them are called 'dakini script'. Dakini are sort of symbolic of 'female spirits', but are more practically references to the apparently constantly changing nature of samsara around us.
Dakini script, as far as I know, is generally something only 'tertons', or 'treasure-revealers', can understand or reveal.

May I be a protector for those who are without protectors, a guide for travelers, and a boat, a bridge, and a ship for those who wish to cross over
May I be a lamp for those who seek light, a bed for those who seek rest, and may I be a servant for all beings who desire a servant
May I be a source of life for the sentient beings present throughout space until they are all liberated.

Some government are facist in order to find bliss. Some government are democratic in order to find bliss.
Some people, including monks, keep short hair in order to find bliss. Some people, including yogis, keep long hair in order to find bliss.

Hot steam ascends to form clouds that condense into a cool, pleasant rain. Cool water descends to turn generators that convert it’s power into warm, glowing lights.
Bodhisattvas are praying and manifesting activity, sometimes in a masochistic style, sometimes in a sadistic style, in order for all sentient beings to find bliss.
Lord Buddha taught in countless different ways so that all beings with countless different faculties can find bliss.
Anyway, wherever they go, all sentient beings from insects to wise men appear to be competing, running a race to find bliss. So, to find bliss, all you have to do is choose your target; don’t bother about anyone’s target.

The Galdr is a type of Magician in old norse culture who made spells “galdror” and sang magical songs. There is a form of poetic meter known as galdralag. The word galdr is connected to the swedish words ’galen’ meaning mad or in love. And ’gala’ the roosters crow at sunrise.
A perfect symbol for the galdr as a Vajrayana practitioner is therefore the rooster. As he wakes people from sleep or drives them mad.
