Black Dzambhala, also known as Jambhala in Sanskrit and Dzambhala Nagpo in Tibetan, is one of the five wealth deities in Tibetan Buddhism. He is considered a wrathful manifestation of Kubera, the god of wealth, and is closely associated with the Buddha of Compassion, Avalokiteshvara (also known as Chenrezig). His fierce form is meant to subdue obstacles to prosperity, destroy inner greed, and eliminate poverty—not only materially, but also spiritually.
