Ziziphus Budhensis Bodhi Prayer Bead Buddha Chitta Phoenix Eye 108+1 Beads 8 to 9mm Mala

This mala is made from true Bodhi seeds, known in Buddhism as Buddha Chitta, meaning the mind of awakening. These sacred seeds come from the Ziziphus Budhensis tree and are used in Mahayana and Vajrayana practice for mantra, prayer, and meditation.

Bodhi beads are not just seeds. They are a support for the path to enlightenment. In Vajrayana, a mala is like a spiritual companion. With every mantra you recite, the beads slowly absorb your practice, your intention, and your blessings.

These seeds are often called Phoenix Eye Bodhi because of the natural eye shape on each bead. This eye reminds practitioners of awareness, wisdom, and the all seeing compassion of the Buddhas.

These beads are sourced from Timal region of Nepal. The trees grow in wild mountain areas. Out of hundreds of old trees, we often collect only enough for 10 to 15 malas in 8 to 9 mm size, and sometimes, it is even less. Collecting these beads is not easy work. It takes long travel through mountain paths and careful hand selection. Because of this, large, well shaped beads are rare and valuable.

These are Natural Bodhi seeds. After harvest, the beads are gently oiled, sun dried, and stored safely. Over time, this brings out their deep natural dark color.

As you use this mala, it will not fade. Instead, it becomes more beautiful. With regular practice, the surface grows smooth and shiny. Many practitioners say after long use, the beads shine so much you can almost see your reflection. This is a sign of connection between the mala and your practice.

Om Kleem Kali Guarantee and Authenticity:
Today, many malas in the market are sold as Bodhi seed, but they are not genuine. True Ziziphus Budhensis Bodhi seeds in this 8 to 9 mm size and quality are very rare. We are among the few Nepali sellers offering real Bodhi seed malas sourced directly from the mountain region of Timal.

Please understand, if you see an 8 to 9 mm Bodhi mala sold cheaper than ours, it is usually not real size Bodhi seed, or the beads are lower quality, mixed grade, or different material being sold under the Bodhi name. Small, well shaped, genuine beads are naturally limited.

Our margin on these malas is not high. We work directly with local collectors and farmers here in Nepal, so the price of this mala is very reasonable. The same quality is sold in Nepal for very high prices due to its rarity and demand.

For your peace of mind, if these are ever found not genuine 8 to 9 mm bodhi seed mala then we will refund you a full money no question asked!!!

We ship directly from Nepal. If you wish, we can take your mala to Syambunath or Boudhanath Stupa and offer prayers before sending it. Comes in a Handmade Tibetan Wooden Box and Mala Bag.
