Trakpo Sumtril is a wrathful deity in Tibetan Buddhism. His name translates roughly as "Three Family Protector," where Trakpo means "wrathful," and Sumtril refers to "three families." He is an emanation of the enlightened compassion of Vajrapani, Manjushri, and Avalokiteshvara—three important Bodhisattvas representing power, wisdom, and compassion, respectively. Trakpo Sumtril combines their attributes, manifesting as a powerful protector deity, who fiercely defends the teachings of the Dharma and assists practitioners in overcoming inner and outer obstacles.
