| | Five Wisdom Buddhas - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The Wisdom Buddhas are all aspects of the dharmakaya or "reality-body", which embodies the principle of enlightenment. | | | The Five Wisdom Buddhas are a later development, based on the Yogācāra elaboration of concepts concerning the jñāna of Buddhas, of the Trikaya theory, which posits three bodies for the Buddha. | | | The Five Wisdom Buddhas are protected by the Five Wisdom Kings, and in Japan are frequently depicted together in the Mandala of the Two Realms. |

| | On a general level, the Wisdom Kings are viewed as the guardians of the Buddhas and bodhisattvas. | | | According to the esoteric doctrine of the Three Wheels, whereas Buddhas represent pure concepts and bodhisattvas teach through compassion, Wisdom Kings are the embodiment of the wheel of injunction and teach through fear, shocking nonbelievers into faith. | | | Wisdom Kings are usually represented as wrathful deities, often with many faces, many arms and even many legs. |
