Hello Sakya peeps
Can anybody report on what they have been told about Dorje Legpa? In particular, do your teachers regard him as a Oath-bound, worldly deity, or as an enlightened protector? I'm informally polling different schools' views on the matter.
many thanks!

Re: Sakya view about Dorje Legpa
I have also never read an opinion about it. For context, in Sakya Mahakala is an oath bound protector, he is also regarded as beyond samsara. The name “oath bound” is not a reliable indicator of the status of a given dharmapala—they are all oath bound.
Re: Sakya view about Dorje Legpa
Is Panjaranata Mahakala the main dharmapala of Sakya? By that I mean he can be relied upon regardless of which Sakya yidam one practices?
The profound path of the master.
