Jambhala, also known as Dzambhala or Zambhala, is a Buddhist deity associated with wealth and prosperity. He is considered a manifestation of Avalokiteshvara, the bodhisattva of compassion. In Hinduism, he is often compared to Kubera. There are five different Zambhalas, each with their own mantra and practices. Here, 'Dzam' means deity, 'Bhah' means gold or wealth, and 'La' means to honor. He doesn’t just help with money and wealth, he also helps people grow spiritually, be more generous and remove problems in life. The statue shows Jambhala sitting on a lotus throne, symbolizing his connection to purity and enlightenment. In his left hand, he holds a mongoose that spits jewels, symbolizing his power to give wealth and abundance to his followers. The mongoose and jewels also show how he can turn negative forces into positive ones. In his right hand, he holds a fruit or a vase filled with fruit, representing his ability to grant both spiritual and material wishes. It is believed that having a statue of Jambhala at home invites wealth and prosperity.
