They are: Great Brahma, Great Black Heaven, Auspicious Heavenly Mother, Matou Guanyin (Matou Vajra), Yama Mandega (Great Vedic Vajra), Yama Heaven, God of Wealth Protector, and God of War Baihar. Compared to the wrath of other protectors, the God of Wealth protector is a serene and mighty appearance, showing the combination of the two attributes of the god of war and the god of wealth.

Duowen Heavenly King's Ritual Practice:

In the Tibetan Esoteric Realm, the Heavenly King is the good deity who is in charge of wealth and wealth and protects the Dharma, and his great wish and blessing power is not only to help seek wealth, but also to hope that all sentient beings can benefit and be happy, stay away from all misfortunes, fulfill all wishes for victory, gain great wisdom, and even have sufficient heavenly vision, and live a long life. There are many rituals related to the Dharma and Wisdom of the Heavenly King, including the Praise Ritual of the Duowen Heavenly King, the Confessional Ritual of the Duowen Heavenly King, the Brief Ritual of Respecting the Heavenly King, the Smoke Offering of the God of Wealth of the Duowen Heavenly King, the Ritual of Increasing the Dharma and Protecting the Dharma, and the Cultivation of the Treasure Heavenly King.

Smoke offerings:

Tobacco offerings are a special way to accumulate food and remove obstacles, in addition to helping us to accumulate our past

In addition to giving birth to the pure land and achieving the fruit of birth, we can also have our needs for life in this world

Great help.

One of the most special ways to make offerings to the king is to make offerings to the king of the heavens. Exclusively for the smoke of the king of many smells

Incense, there are white gum incense, benzoin, dipteroscope, sandalwood, etc., can be in the Buddhist temple dojo, their own Buddhist hall mandala

Or the high places on the top floor, as well as the mountains and fields and other clean places, if you can say sincere and sincere smoke offerings, you can be inspired

The Heavenly King appeared with his subordinates and promised to protect the country and make the cultivators rich.

There is also the "Treasure King Practice", which is a ritual that comes from Tantra, and according to Tantra regulations, you must first take refuge in the Vajra Master. Therefore, if you have taken refuge in the Guru and practiced Tantra, you can ask the Guru to teach the God of Wealth Dharma and mantras. Friends who have not taken refuge can also practice the Buddha-figure method such as Avalokiteshvara first, and then refer to this method to practice after receiving blessings, which also has a certain effect.

The special merits obtained by cultivating the Dharma of the Heavenly King can eliminate the troubles of poverty, hardship, and career decay, and quickly revive the fortune and career, increase the wealth and power, and obtain all auspiciousness like rain, and fulfill all good wishes. Those who practice compassion and joy and good deeds and benefit all sentient beings, with the great blessing of the King of Heaven and his subordinates, can have a smooth and ambitious career, and seek wealth and fulfill their wishes, and quickly respond accordingly.

He is also the most famous treasure king in the Tibetan secrets, and he vows to help poor beings who lack wealth and cultivate sincerely

With this deity, you can have a smooth career, seek wealth and fulfill your wishes, and respond quickly

When cultivating the Dharma, first bathe and cleanse the body, dress neatly, and then worship the statue of the treasure king and the offering bottle as the Dharma, you can light sandalwood or essential oil and recite the pure mantra (there are general Buddhist textbooks) recite the names of Amitabha Buddha and Guanyin Bodhisattva three times each, and pray three times in time and space, and recite the refuge mantra "Nam Mogu Bei, Nam Mobudaya, Nam Mo Dharma Maya, Nam Mo Sanghaya" three times, before you can sit down and chant at least once, "Amitabha Sutra", "Diamond Sutra", "Guanyin Bodhisattva Pumen Pin" and so on. Dedicate yourself and recite the mantra of the King of Treasure at least 108 times. Imagine a crown full of jewels descending from the sky and offering it to the King of Treasures, reciting the prayer: "Disciple X offers the King of Heaven with a crown of Dharma and the five colored treasures, may the King of Heaven bless his disciples and have a smooth career; May I seek the treasures of the world, increase my practice, and give alms. "Thank you to the King of Treasure, prostrate, and then recite the names of Amitabha Buddha and Avalokiteshvara three times each, and those who have not taken refuge in the empowerment can recite the name of Avalokiteshvara and the six-character mantra "Hum Mani Horn" 5,000 times a day, so that the cumulative amount of at least 100,000 times in 20 days can practice the practice of the Treasure King.

King Duowen is not only the protector of the Dharma, but also the god of wealth who bestows treasures. When he was the protector of the God of Wealth, he often led a group of subordinate generals, such as eight horse masters who rode horses and held treasure rats in their hands, the four heavenly kings who stood and the five gods of wealth who were in groups, a total of 17 people. And as the Northern Heavenly King, the Duowen Heavenly King does not have so many subordinates

The "Eight Horse Masters", commonly known as the "Eight Horses God of Wealth", are eight gods who hold treasure rats and ride horses, that is, the Yaksha tribesmen led by the many heavens in the classics. They are:
