Dharmapalas, or Dharma Protectors, play a crucial role in Vajrayana Buddhism, acting as guardians of the Buddhist law and its followers. Shakya Dharmapala is particularly venerated for his fierce dedication to defending the integrity of the teachings and the well-being of the Sangha. His representation in art and sculpture is not only an homage to his power but also an invocation of his protection and blessings.
