    Wish Granting Jewel.
    Grants wishes, brings wealth and is very often depicted as a single orb with a pointed top, or as a set of three jewels, sometimes with a flame nimbus. This grouping of three probably represents the Three Jewels of Buddhism, which are Buddha, the Dharma
    (Buddhist law), and the Sangha (community of Buddhist believers). The jewel appears in a wide range of artistic forms, including the 1000-Armed Kannon, Jiz Bosatsu, Kok Bosatsu, and Aizen Known or hoju no tama in Japan, this jewel signifies the bestowal of blessings on all who suffer, for it grants wishes, pacifies desires, and brings clear understanding of the Dharma (Buddhist law). This equates to “wealth” in Buddhist philosophy.
