Within the Sakya Sect they engaged in the Dharmapala practice the "Three Kings" known to them as the "Gyalpo Sum".
The Gyalpo Sum are three Dhamapalas, namely Dorje Shugden, Setrap and Tsiu (Kache) Marpo.

Historically, the Sakyas were the first to propitiate the Dharma protector Dorje Shugden. According to both Sakya and Gelug accounts, it was the 30th Sakya Trizin Sonam Rinchen (1705-1741) who introduced Dorje Shugden into the pantheon of Sakya protectors. Later, Sonam Rinchen placed Dorje Shugden alongside two other protectors, Setrap Chen and Tsi’u Marpo and these three became known as the Gyalpo Sum or the Three Kings. This group of protectors was practiced widely within the tradition.

Although it was Sonam Rinchen who enthroned Dorje Shugden Tanag as a Dharma protector within the Sakya tradition and introduced his worship to the community, it was his son, Kunga Lodro, who developed Dorje Shugden’s various emanations and rituals, and made the practice mainstream. In fact, later Sakya Trizins claimed that Kunga Lodro was himself an emanation of Dorje Shugden.

Within the tradition, amongst the most recent of the Sakya Trizin’s, six of them practiced and relied strongly on Dorje Shugden. These include:
30th Sakya Throneholder Sonam Rinchen (1705-1741)
31st Throneholder Sachen Kunga Lodro (1729-1783)
33rd Throneholder Padma Dudul Wangchug (1792-1853)

We all know the public statements by the now retired 41st Sakya Trizin against Dorje Shugden.
I believe that by doing so he has publicly betrayed Dorje Shugden, Setrap and Tsiu (Kache) Marpo.
I believe the 41st engaged in an act of COWARDLY FEAR that if he did not condemn and attack Dorje Shugden he would suffer the wrath of the 14th Dalai Lama and the CTA.
The 41st Sakya Trizin feared being publicly condemned as a Chinese Agent and being against the 14th Dalai Lama and the CTA.
He saw the wide spread fear the ban was causing in the world wide Tibetan community.
The 41st Sakya Trizin decided to save himself, his THRONE and his wealth by backing the 14th Dalai Lama and the CTA.
By doing so the 41st not only betrayed the "Gyalpo Sum" but also six previous Sakya Trizin's.
Six previous Sakypa Trizin's who loved, taught and conducted Dorje Shugden empowerments to their followers.
The 41st Sakya Trizin has now turned his back on six previous Sakya Trizin's.
The 41st has now turned his back on Dorje Shugden, Setrap and Tsiu (Kache) Marpo.
The 14th Dalai Lama and the CTA hate Dorje Shugden.
They hate Setrap because he brought Dorje Shugden to the Sakya Monastery were he was made a Dhamapala.
They hate Tsiu (Kache) Marpo because through his Tengyeling Oracle he told the monks, nuns and lay people to rise up and overthrow the 13th Dalai Lama and his Government.
They hate Tsiu (Kache) Marpo because the Dharmapala Methar works side by side with him in the retinue of Dorje Shugden.
Methar who had Tsiu (Kache) Marpo as his then Dharma Protector and followed his declaration to overthrow the 13th Dalai Lama and his Government.
Methar who fought and died following the words of his Dhamapala Tsiu (Kache) Marpo.
What "BLACK KARMA" will the 41st Sakya Trizin suffer for his "PUBLIC BETRAYAL" of HIS "Gyalpo Sum", Dorje Shugden, Setrap and Tsiu (Kache) Marpo?
What "BLACK KARMA" will the 41st Sakya Trizin suffer for his "PUBLIC BETRAYAL" of six previous Sakya Trizins who all loved, practiced and taught Dorje Shugden?
The 5th Dalai Lama with the help of the Mongolian Khan and his army destroyed the then ruling leader of Tibet Sakya Trizin and the Sakya Sect through military violence, destruction and MASS MURDERS.
The 14th Dalai Lama and the CTA destroyed the 41st Sakya Trizin and his Sakya Sect with MERE WORDS.
Hopefully the new 42nd Sakya Trizin will fight for the "Gyalpo Sum" and not be the COWARD the 41st Sakya Trizin IS!!!!
