Old Tibetan Phoenix Eye Bodhi Seed Mala

📿 A Mala That Feels Like Clarity

This Bodhi seed mala holds a grounded, open energy.

The brownish red beads, aged from an original strand, feel steady in hand — while the white cord and tassel bring lightness and space. It’s bold and calm at once, like a deep breath on a quiet morning.

There’s power in its simplicity — and softness in its strength.

🌱 The Spiritual Meaning of Bodhi Seeds

Bodhi seeds have long symbolized spiritual awakening — a reminder of the Buddha’s moment beneath the Bodhi tree. In many traditions, they’re used to support mindfulness, prayer, and presence.

These larger 12mm beads make each movement intentional. Their rich, earthy tone invites you to slow down — to notice what’s here, and to return to it again and again.

🧵 Handmade in Tibet

This mala was re-strung by hand in Tibet, using 35–45-year-old Bodhi seeds harvested from the original strand. The guru and stupa beads, also made of Bodhi seed, continue the sacred thread of continuity.

It’s finished with a white cord and tassel, creating a clean, peaceful contrast to the depth of the beads. Everything about this piece is intentional — honoring both tradition and the present moment.
