The four male gatekeepers (Wyl. sgo ba yab bzhi), who are counted among the forty-two peaceful deities, are:

  1. Achala, guarding the east gate (or Vijaya? or Mahabala?)
  2. Yamantaka, guarding the south gate
  3. Hayagriva, guarding the west gate
  4. Amritakundali (Skt.; Tib. Düdtsi Yönten), guarding the north gate
