Dwarapalaka

Dwarapalaka, also known as Jaya-Vijaya, are the two demigod gatekeepers of the abode of Vishnu. They can be seen as gatekeepers in Vishnu temples and temples affiliated with Vaishnavism. It has been said by many that the strengths of Dwarapalaka gradually declined with each subsequent birth.杜尔瓦帕拉卡（Dwarapalaka），亦称佳雅-维贾亚（Jaya-Vijaya），为毗湿奴（Vishnu）居所的两位半神守门者。他们常作为守门人现身于毗湿奴神庙及隶属于外士那瓦派（Vaishnavism）的宗教场所。诸多记载称，杜尔瓦帕拉卡的力量会随着每一次后续的转世而逐渐衰退。
