Jambhala, God of Wealth Statue, Buddhist Deity Gilded In Pure 24k Gold
The Buddhist Deity, Jambhala, is the God of Wealth and a member of the Jewel Family. An artist handcrafts this statue from Kathmandu in 24K gold. He is seated with his right leg drawn in and his left leg in the periphery. With a frown on its face, a Bodhisattva's crown, diamonds, and a grossly swollen tummy, the artist adorned this statue as royal. His mongoose Nehulay, which he holds in his left hand, is his most distinguishing feature. Nehulay, constantly spitting gorgeous gems and wealth, represents Dzambhala's destruction over the nagas (snakes). Medical citron fruits, which offer medicinal benefits such as fever reduction, are present in his right hand and at the foot of the statue.

Jambhala is also an emanation of Vaisnavara, one of the Four Great Heavenly Kings who protects the world. Like that of all Buddhas, his practice can assist us in achieving the ultimate goal of Enlightenment
The deity of riches, "Kubera," inspired Dzambhala sculptures. Kubera's mission from the gods in Hinduism was to make worshippers wealthy. This gold-gilded Jambala statue is ideal for Vajrayana practice.
