Dhṛtarāṣṭra is one of the Four Heavenly Kings in Buddhist tradition, specifically serving as the Guardian of the East. His name means “He Who Upholds the Realm” or “King Who Holds the Nation.” Dhṛtarāṣṭra is depicted as a protector of the Dharma and a defender against evil spirits. He is often portrayed holding a pipa (a traditional Chinese lute) or a sword, symbolizing his role in maintaining harmony and warding off malevolent forces. As a Lokapāla, or world-protector, he is venerated in various Buddhist cultures, including those of China, Japan, and Tibet, and is considered a key figure in safeguarding the spiritual and physical realms.
