		Some of the known Dharmapalas are: Mahakala, mainly an emanation of the Hindu god Shiva, some forms of Mahakala are emanations of the Bodhisattva of Compassion, Avalokiteshvara; Kalarupa, an emanation of the Buddha of Wisdom, (Manjushri) and Kalindewi or Palden Lhamo.

	Writings by Sangharakshita \| Anagarika Dharmapala's Achievement
		In some places, such as Ceylon, where Dharmapala was born, the indigenous religion and culture had been crushed for centuries and when Portuguese ferocity, Dutch brutality and British indifference had done their worst precious few traces of them were left.
		But undeterred Dharmapala set to work, fought vigorously to rescue Buddhgaya, reclaimed the sacred places, established centres, and kept up a continuous stream of propaganda with the result that before his death he was able to plant, and see beginning to sprout, the seed that is now fast growing into a noble tree.
		Dharmapala's advent and example mark the beginning of a new tendency, not indeed to minimize in any way the role of the Sangha, but rather to encourage an increased participation in active Buddhist work by the laity.
