Past and Present Lives Thangka Pendant (Alloy Long)

Happy New Year, welcome wealth on January 1st. At Zha Ji Temple, every Wednesday is bustling with incense, dedicated to the Goddess Zha Ji La Mu. The most beautiful goddess, Zha Ji La Mu charm. This Thangka depicts the past and present lives of Goddess Zha Ji La Mu. Zha Ji La Mu is a female wealth deity within the Tibetan Buddhist pantheon, revered as a worldly protector enshrined at Lhasa's Zha Ji Temple. Two main interpretations of her origins exist: One views Zha Ji La Mu as a native protector deity of the Tibetan region. The other suggests she is an emanation of Rajasthani Nima Sonam. In a past life, she was a beloved concubine of an emperor, admired for both her beauty and talent. Betrayed and murdered out of jealousy, her spirit lingered until guided by a high monk to embrace Buddhism. She then followed this monk in his spiritual journey, eventually establishing the present-day Zha Ji Temple en route to Sera Monastery, where she receives offerings. Many business people traveling to Lhasa make pilgrimages to Zha Ji Temple, experiencing increased prosperity. To this day, Zha Ji Temple is widely recognized in Lhasa as the most efficacious temple for wealth, and Zha Ji La Mu has become a renowned goddess of fortune.
