Handcrafted by a Jonang monk in China at the request of Shar Khentrul Jamphel Lodrö Rinpoche, this ceremonial arrow is a traditional implement used to summon, stabilize, and increase one’s life-force (la), good fortune, longevity, and prosperity. Each arrow was created with devotion using methods passed through the Jonang lineage, and carries the power of the five elements and five wisdom Dakinis through the multicolored ribbons tied around its shaft. The arrow were blessed during the construction process.
In 2025, these arrows were brought to the United States and empowered during the Red Vaisravana Empowerment & Puja and again in the Drolmi Kazug Puja held in California. Through these extensive rituals, the arrows became blessed with both the wealth-creating activity of Red Vaisravana and the fortune-enhancing power of Drolmi Kazug. Together, these blessings strengthen the arrow’s ability to increase auspicious conditions, dispel obstacles, and attract supportive energies into one’s life and environment.
The arrow also relates to the sacred imagery of Red Vaisravana holding the spear, a symbol of protective force and the subduing of negativity. As such, the arrow serves not only to gather life-force but also to guard it, creating a stable foundation for health, vitality, and success.
Symbolism of the Ribbons
The attached colored ribbons represent:
-
The Five Elements – earth, water, fire, wind, and space
-
The Five Dakinis – whose enlightened energies support vitality, clarity, harmony, and prosperity
These sacred colors are traditionally used to call forth balanced life-force and to harmonize elemental energies both within the practitioner and in their surrounding environment.
Please Note
-
Each arrow is individually handcrafted and will naturally vary in appearance.
-
Arrows do not come with a stand or arrowhead. Due to international shipping restrictions, you will need to attach your own arrowhead if desired.
-
Because of the multiple layers of blessing they have received—both from the Drolmi Kazug Puja and Red Vaisravana’s prosperity rites—these arrows are considered potent supports for wealth-gathering, fortune-increasing, and life-force practices.
Use this arrow on your altar, during your Drolmi Kazug Puja practice, or as part of your fortune-creating rituals to invoke the combined blessings of Drolmi Kazug, Red Vaisravana, and the Jonang lineage.
