Our Yellow Dzambhala statue on snow lion mount originated as the god of wealth known as Kubera in Hinduism. However, when Dzambhala was adopted into Buddhism he became associated with additional virtues such as equanimity and generosity. Indeed, he is the embodiment of Ratnasambhava who is the Dhyani Buddha of equanimity. As a result, this Yellow Dzambhala statue can still make devotees wealthy but alleviation of poverty is given priority. It is the Buddhist mandate of Dzambhala to make basic necessities accessible to the less fortunate.
