Yama Dharmaraja is a wrathful wisdom deity and a principal protector in Tibetan Buddhism. He is often depicted alongside Vajrabhairava, a manifestation of Manjushri, serving as the inner protector of the Yamantaka cycle. As the Lord of Death, he judges beings according to their karma, guiding them through the bardo (intermediate state) and into their next rebirth, thus upholding the laws of cause and effect.
