[Buddha-l] Dharmapala, redux

[JKirkpatrick]

I was just surprised to find protectors of the Dharma in
non-Mahayana Buddhism. And I think it does relate to the
"forced-conversion" issue, though I am not sure what it implies
at this point.

No, it doesn't. There is no forced conversion issue. 
You think in literalist terms and not in the poetic terms needed
for dealing with folklore.
