Praises to the Black Dzambhala

I pay homage to Guru Black Dzambhala.

The Black Dzambhala is known as the Kubera , God of Wealth. He will fulfill your wishes, make you connect with spiritual and worldly wealth and create financial stability and prosperity if worshiped with a pure and proper motivation, Bodhichitta and compassion toward other beings.

Black Dzambhala is manifested in a wrathful form with a significant purpose:-

”Because in this world, there are all kinds of wrathful and negative emotions or bad spirits, and sometimes they will harm you and other sentient beings, Dzambhala must take on such a wrathful and powerful form to protect us from these harmful spirits and negative karma" 

Especially, Dzambhala helps us minimize or decrease all misfortunes and obstacles and helps us increase all good fortune and happiness. 

There are five different colors manifestation of wealth Zambhala, the Yellow, Red, Green, White and the Black. 

Each has their own practice and mantra to help eliminate poverty and create financial stability, The five Zambhalas wealth deities are to guide sentient beings along the path to enlightenment. They have the essence of generosity and represent the activities of increasing benefit. Their aspirations are to help the poor and those suffering from ill-fortune.

Legend has it, when Buddha Sakyamuni was teaching Maha Prajna-Paramita Sutra , Devadatta is overwhelmed envy hurled stones to Buddha . However, the stone hit the head Zambhala White and Yellow and Black Dzambhala stomach. The Buddha then went and to and blessed all the Dzambhalas; flowing substance of his wisdom, compassion, and love is white, like nectar, and touching the head Dzambhala. Dzambhala feel very happy, joyful, peaceful, and free from defilement and restrictions, as well as to heal. 

Dzambhala immediately bowed to the Buddha and grateful. Buddha Sakyamuni said to him, "As I am already healed you and myself had poured the nectar of this holy unto you, in the future, if one of my students who invoke strength and pour water over your head - bless them with wealth, give them two types wealth, material wealth and spiritual wealth, especially the more important is the spiritual wealth.

Aspiration For Bodhichitta
For those in whom the precious Bodhichitta has not arisen
May it arise and not decrease
But increase further and further.

Dedication of Merit
By this merit may we obtain omniscience then.
Having defeated the enemies wrong-doings.
May we liberate migrators from the ocean of existence.
With its stormy waves of birth, old age, sickness and death.
