Dzambhala is a revered deity in Tibetan Buddhism associated with wealth, prosperity, and the removal of poverty, both material and spiritual. Often considered the Buddhist god of wealth, Dzambhala is believed to bestow fortune and generosity upon practitioners who cultivate compassion and wisdom. His practice is not merely about material gain but also about overcoming greed and cultivating inner richness and abundance. He is frequently depicted seated in a regal posture, holding a mongoose that spits jewels, symbolizing the endless flow of prosperity and the liberation from suffering caused by attachment.
