📿 A Mala That Grounds You in Stillness
This Bodhi seed mala carries a quiet strength.
Each bead comes from an original strand — aged by time and softened by practice. The moment it rests in your hand, you feel it: the calm, the weight, the presence. It doesn’t ask for attention; it simply offers space.
A steady companion for those walking a mindful path.
🌱 The Meaning Inside Each Bead
In Buddhist tradition, Bodhi seeds represent the Buddha’s awakening — a reminder of the clarity and peace that comes when we return to the present. These dark brown beads hold that story. Simple, timeworn, and full of devotion.
Their petite size makes them easy to move through your fingers, while their energy is anything but small — every bead is a breath, a pause, a step toward stillness.

🧵 Handmade in Tibet
This mala was re-strung in Tibet using the original 30–40 year-old Bodhi seeds, paired with a matching Bodhi seed guru bead and a black sandalwood stupa bead — a grounding contrast both visually and energetically.
It’s finished with a durable black cord and a soft black tassel — clean, understated, and deeply intentional. Each element was chosen to honor the simplicity of practice and the beauty of presence.
