Introduction To Guardian King Dharmapala Namtose :
Namtoshe is the King of all the wealth Yakshas. He is also known as Vaishravana, a worldly guardian worshipped as both a protector and benefactor. He lives on the north side of the lower slopes of Mount Meru in the Heaven of the Four Great Kings. As the leader of the Four Directions Guardians, he, like the others, swore an oath of protection before the buddha Shakyamuni to support and protect all who follow the path the Buddha Taught.
He has two main aspects that of a warrior protector and that of a deity of wealth. Here he is shown as the deity of wealth. In southern Buddhism, particularly in the Indian sub-continent, he is known as Jambhala because he also carries a Jambhara (lemon) in one of his hands.
