Pehar Gyalpo is one of the chief Dharma Protectors in Tibetan Buddhism, especially revered within the Gelug school. He is considered the principal oracle of the Nechung Monastery and serves as the protector of the Dalai Lamas and the Tibetan government in exile. Historically, Pehar was a Bon deity subdued by Padmasambhava, who vowed to protect Buddhist teachings. He often appears in a wrathful form, symbolizing his fierce commitment to overcoming obstacles to spiritual practice and maintaining the purity of the Dharma.
