Product specification:
Jambhala - the Buddhist God of wealth is seated on a white snow lion. The snow lion is the presiding deity of Tibet's snowy mountain ranges. It is the national animal of Tibet and adorns the Tibetan national flag, as also the insignia of the Dalai lama himself. The large rounded body of Jambhala is golden yellow in color and he has a stern expression. His right hand holds a banner of victory, while the left arm holds a mongoose, an animal associated with good fortune. The mongoose is shown vomiting jewels symbolizing the boon of this Lord of wealth. Jambhala in addition is also the Guardian deity of the north direction. Thus his image is often placed on the outer walls of monasteries and temples along with the guardians of the other three directions. This is believed to be a safeguard against harmful influences which violate the sanctity of the sanctum inside.
Jambhala is also known as Vaishravana the popular god of wealth in Hindu Mythology and holds strong resemblance to the Hindu deity Kubera.
Painted: This wonderful high quality Thangka Painting of Jambhala is painted by the experienced artists of Nepal who have been in this business for generations.
