Dorje Drolo is a wrathful manifestation of Guru Rinpoche (Padmasambhava), renowned for his fierce, transformative energy and role as a Dharma protector. It reflects the syncretic process of Buddhism’s establishment in Tibet, where local spirits and deities were subdued and integrated into the Buddhist cosmology through such wrathful forms. Dorje Drolo is a powerful symbol of the fierce compassion and spiritual strength necessary to overcome obstacles on the path to enlightenment, embodying the dynamic and protective qualities of Guru Rinpoche’s enlightened activity.
