Old Tibetan Small Bodhi Seed Wrist Mala

📿 A Small Bodhi Seed Mala with a Big Presence

This Small Bodhi Seed Mala holds more than meets the eye. Its compact size makes it easy to wear, but its energy runs deep. The 30 vintage Bodhi seeds, each around 8.5mm, come from an original mala — softened by years of use and shaped by steady hands. Their tones — rich reds and deep oranges — feel warm, grounding, and quietly vibrant.

Held together by a green cord and matching tassel, this wrist mala offers a beautiful balance of subtlety and strength.

🌱 The Meaning Behind This Small Bodhi Seed Mala

For centuries, Bodhi seeds have been used in sacred practice. They symbolize awakening — a reflection of the Buddha’s enlightenment beneath the Bodhi tree. But more than that, they invite intention, devotion, and a return to inner stillness.

This Small Bodhi Seed Mala is perfect for shorter meditations or on-the-go grounding. The bead size and count make it incredibly portable, while still maintaining deep symbolic value.
