Vajrayana is a free translation of Indian Sanskrit, transliterated as "Vajrayana", where "Vajrayana" means "Vajrayana pestle", "Dharma" means "holding vajrayana" or "Vajrayana holding"; In Tibetan, it is called "Duojie Qiang". There are various opinions about his identity and status: one believes that he is the primordial Buddha, that is, the most primitive Buddha; One believes that he is a Bodhisattva; One believes that he is a collection of the three bodies of law, law, and culture; One believes that he has always absorbed the wisdom and merits of the Five Buddhas, and calls him the "Sixth Vajra Bodhisattva" or "Vajra Bodhisattva". However, he is the supreme god of Tibetan Buddhism. Among the various sects of Tibetan Buddhism, the Kaju sect especially worships Vajrayana. The Kaju sect respects Vajrayana as the original Buddha. In Thangka and other painting forms that express the theme of the Kaju sect, Vajrayana is often placed at the top center and receives special respect; At the same time, the Kagyu sect also regarded Vajrayana as the founder of its own sect, believing that all the teachings of the Kagyu sect originated from Vajrayana. The Vajrayana sect's later emperors, Loba, Nanoba, Marba, Minarepa, and Gangboba, were passed down one after another, ultimately achieving the vast system of the Kagyu sect in Tibet.
