I think you could ask any good Lama and they would concur.lelopa wrote: ↑Sat Jan 08, 2022 9:56 amYou forgot to begin this post with "Afaik..."American Friend wrote: ↑Fri Jan 07, 2022 12:18 am One does not self generate as a Dharma Protector, one self generates as a Yidam. As the Yidam you can work with Protectors but really, just be friends with them, I would be careful about asking for something from them!!!

Any "good" Lama? So you think the dozens of Lamas who know it better are not "good"???American Friend wrote: ↑Sun May 15, 2022 2:59 pmI think you could ask any good Lama and they would concur.lelopa wrote: ↑Sat Jan 08, 2022 9:56 amYou forgot to begin this post with "Afaik..."American Friend wrote: ↑Fri Jan 07, 2022 12:18 am One does not self generate as a Dharma Protector, one self generates as a Yidam.

No, Sir, maybe a few would do so, but I don't even know a single one.
You are right for "default" Dharmapal sadhanas you transform first as a yidam - but there are a lot of sadhanas
with Dharmapala as yidam.
I've recieved transmission of at least two different Dharmapalas as yidam: one from Kagyupa & the other from a terma.
But I know here is the Gelug-forum, maybe they cannot accept this
Lost In Transmission

Topic locked.
Somehow I think, this topic evolved more and more to something that is now completely inappropriate.
I never heard my Gelug teacher chat like this about HYT protector practice. He would talk about it and explain it only in the context of an empowerment.
