The Yellow Jambhala, known in Tibetan as Zangbalar, ranks among the foremost of the Five Jambhalas widely venerated across Tibetan Buddhism. Revered as the leader of all wealthy deities, Yellow Jambhala bestows abundant prosperity to practitioners of the Vajrayana path, freeing them from financial pressures to focus wholeheartedly on spiritual pursuits. This magnificent statue of Yellow Jambhala is exceptionally large, crafted with top-tier casting techniques, showcasing exquisite gilt-bronze work with a natural patina that has been well preserved over time.
His distinctive high crown adorned with five leaves, serene countenance with piercing eyes, prominent nose, and thick lips are meticulously detailed, conveying a sense of clarity and precision. The figure is depicted bare-chested, adorned with elaborate jewelry and flowing sashes that add dynamism to its posture—a, a rarity among contemporary sculptures. In his left hand, he holds a mongoose spouting jewel, while his right hand grasps a wish-fulfilling jewel, seated in a relaxed posture with his right foot resting on a wish-granting jewel atop a large, fully bloomed lotus.
The dignified composition and refined craftsmanship of this bronze sculpture attest to its enduring appeal and pristine condition, radiating an aura of abundant wealth. Such a monumental depiction of Yellow Jambhala is exceptionally rare, especially one executed with such exquisite craftsmanship. According to Brother Zhong, this statue was respectfully commissioned from the Shalu Monastery in Shigatse during earlier years, maintaining a tradition of meticulous transmission, thus embodying exceptional merit.
