📿 A Bodhi Prayer Beads Mala That Feels Like Home in Your Hand
This Bodhi Prayer Beads wrist mala holds the quiet energy of something well-traveled and deeply loved. Each bead comes from an old mala, softened by time and touched by countless moments of practice. The brown tones feel earthy and calm, grounding you with every touch. Re-strung into a wrist mala, this piece is compact and easy to carry, yet still holds the weight of meaning. The deep red cord and tassel add a warm, steady contrast. And with a deer bone guru bead, the piece honors both nature and impermanence.
It’s humble, heartfelt, and full of quiet strength.
🌱 The Meaning Held in Bodhi Prayer Beads
In Buddhist tradition, Bodhi Prayer Beads represent more than just seeds — they’re reminders of the Buddha’s enlightenment under the Bodhi tree. These beads encourage mindfulness, compassion, and presence — wherever you are on your path.
This mala includes 28 vintage Bodhi beads, each about 8.10×11mm, plus a deer bone guru bead. The feel is natural, the energy is steady — perfect for daily wear or mindful moments.

🧵 Handmade in Tibet With Patience and Purpose
This piece was handmade in Tibet, using 40–50-year-old Bodhi seeds reclaimed from a long-practiced mala. Every bead was carefully chosen and re-strung by hand, giving it fresh life while honoring its past.
It’s strung on a durable red cord, accented with a subtle tassel and grounded by a deer bone guru bead — a nod to impermanence, nature, and the sacred cycle of life.
🧘 How to Use Your Bodhi Prayer Beads

- Repeating mantras or personal affirmations

Import Taxes & Customs Duties
United States Import Taxes & Customs Duties
We pay all import duties, tariffs and customs clearance fees before your parcel reaches you. The price at checkout is the final price, and nothing is owed to the carrier at delivery.
What we cover on US orders:
- Import duties and tariffs
- Customs clearance and brokerage fees
- Any carrier disbursement or advancement fees
If a carrier ever asks you to pay a customs charge on one of our parcels, do not pay it. Contact us with the notice and we will resolve it directly with the carrier.
Import Taxes & Customs Duties for Other Countries
We only cover import charges on orders shipped to the United States. For all other countries, the buyer pays any import taxes and duties.
Here's why. We can do this because we're based in the US. This allows us to stay up to date on changes to US import taxes and duties, and since most of our orders ship here, we know what to expect.
Other countries are different. Every country sets its own import taxes and duties, and the rules are different everywhere. The amount can depend on the type of product, the value of your order, and your country's tax rates. These rates can also change without much notice. Since we can't know the exact charge ahead of time, we aren't able to cover it.
What you may need to pay on non-US orders:
- Import duties and taxes, such as VAT or GST
- Customs clearance and brokerage fees
- Any carrier handling fees
The carrier usually collects these charges before or at delivery. To find out what you might owe, contact your local customs office before you order.
