Vaishravana/Namthosey Thangka - D (Hand Painted, 18"x24")

Invite the protective and prosperous energy of Vaishravana (Tib. Namthosey), the directional protector-king of the North, into your space. Vaishravana, also known as the embodiment of the Perfection of Generosity and the Lord of Wealth (associated with Jambhala), is an emanation of Ratnasambhava. As a protector deity, he promises to ensure that no monastery will suffer poverty, provided its residents uphold pure monastic conduct and vows. Vaishravana is particularly beneficial for those new to Dharma, as he was considered by Je Tsongkhapa to be the most suitable dharmapala for practitioners at the start of their spiritual journey.
