About Wealth Vases

Originating in India, the tradition of wealth vases arrived in Tibet over 1,000 years ago. The ancient Saint Padmasambava gave specific instructions for creating wealth vases, which represent the Wealth Buddhas. Since then, Tibetans have kept wealth vases in their homes, on the altar and even buried in the ground. These days, wealth vases are also kept in offices and places of business.

Sometimes known as treasure vases or feng shui vases, wealth vases are highly effective to attract the energies of wealth and increase. They can help provide material gain and prosperity, while blessing and stabilising their surrounding environment. On a spiritual level, wealth vases also help in achieving inner wealth, which are spiritual attainments.
