Jambupati Buddha (Jambhupati) is a special form of Buddha. He is represented in bhumisparsha mudra, adorned and is venerated in Theravada Buddhism, particularly in Burma. According to legend, Jambhupati was a powerful and arrogant king, whom the Buddha transformed into a humble monk to teach him compassion and impermanence. This story symbolizes spiritual transformation and the importance of humility in Buddhism. Depictions of Jambhupati are often worshiped to invoke protection and prosperity.
