Old Tibetan Bodhi Seed Mala

📿 A Mala That Feels Like Home

This Bodhi seed mala carries the kind of energy that feels familiar — even on first touch.

The beads come from an original, well-loved strand. Decades old. Seasoned by silence and use. They’ve been held before, and now, they’re here for you.

It’s light in the hand, grounded in the heart, and ready for a new rhythm.

🌱 The Wisdom in the Seeds

In Buddhist tradition, Bodhi seeds represent the journey to clarity — the moment the Buddha found awakening beneath the Bodhi tree. These beads hold that same spaciousness. A quiet reminder to return to what matters.

Their smooth brown surface tells of time and touch. Soft but not worn down. Just right.

🧵 Handmade in Tibet

This mala was re-strung in Tibet using beads from the original strand — still paired with their matching Bodhi seed guru and stupa beads.

The durable green cord and matching tassel were chosen with care, bringing a touch of earth and renewal to the mala's energy. No frills. Just honest, handmade craftsmanship shaped by tradition and intention.
