Namshyalma (Wyl. gnam zhal ma; Skt. Krodhiśvarī) — Chemchok Heruka's consort, and the wrathful aspect of Samantabhadri.
Source
The consort of Chemchok is Namshyalma (Tib. གནམ་ཞལ་མ་, Wyl. gnam zhal ma). She has nine heads and eighteen hands. Her main central hands hold a vajra and skull-cup (Skt. kapala). The eight hands on her right hold the wrathful manifestations of the eight bodhisattvas, known as the eight gaurima and then the eight on the left hold the wrathful emanations of the eight female bodhisattvas known as the eight singhama.
