Black Dzambhala (also spelled Jambhala or Zambhala) is one of the five wealth deities in Tibetan Buddhism, each representing different aspects of prosperity. Black Dzambhala is a wrathful manifestation of the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara (Chenrezig), the embodiment of compassion, who appears in this fierce form to eradicate poverty and overcome inner and outer obstacles to wealth and spiritual growth.
