"You can’t understand the idea of a liberator who braves reincarnation without understanding liberation.
The bodhisattva isn’t just a heroic dharma warrior.
They are enlightened first and foremost. Their ethos in the world is the vehicle for the truth’s transition.
If they’re looked at as paragons of a certain quality, and not the enlightening, then they’re being looked at arguably for the wrong reasons.
A bodhisattva of compassion is the bodhisattva of compassion not because compassion is inherently worthwhile, but because it is an excellent vehicle for attaining enlightenment in the appropriate application."
- Unimatic Musings
They can be warriors but are beyond that.
They are Apotheosis embodied in a non-general Buddhist way or viewing it.
This is what libtard and western so-called Buddhists don't get.
The whole compassion = alturism is false.
Karmic compassion and Upaya may mean I am harsh with you or do something that will help you / others awaken for the karmic good
That may be violence.

The purest expression is silence—not the absence of sound, but the cessation of position. Where nothing is referenced, nothing binds. The Word is the dead: that is, the transcendence of all utterance.

Do not mourn the dead. Mourn the living who still believe they are alive.

“It is such a mistake to assume that practicing dharma will help us calm down and lead an untroubled life; nothing could be further from the truth. Dharma is not a therapy. Quite the opposite, in fact; dharma is tailored specifically to turn your life upside down—it’s what you sign up for. So when your life goes pear-shaped, why do you complain? If you practice and your life fails to capsize, it is a sign that what you are doing is not working. This is what distinguishes the dharma from New Age methods involving auras, relationships, communication, well-being, the Inner Child, being one with the universe, and tree hugging. From the point of view of dharma, such interests are the toys of samsaric beings—toys that quickly bore us senseless.”

Phra Ngang is a form of lower deity from Thai folklore that will help you in pursuit of worldly endeavours.
Some stories trace their origin to battles fought in the Khmer region, people would find Buddha statues that were drenched in blood on the battle field and these were rumoured to grant wishes.
Some stories say that Phra Ngang used to be a monk filled to the brim with lust or that he was a sage that was granted power from Shiva.
As mentioned earlier, these imps can help their owners in matters regarding the world. Money, love, sex, protection from physical harm and more.
I have three of these in my possession (not these ones) made by various magicians in the Lanna region in northern Thailand.

A Tocharian mural in Maya Cave shows two men scarring their foreheads at the Buddha’s funeral.
Bede mentions scarring the face after the death of a loved one in his penitential among residual pagan practices in the 8th Century, it’s entirely possible that the practice of scarifying or tattooing the face in memory of fallen kinsmen originated with the Proto Indo-Europeans.
