Phoenix Eye Bodhi Seed Mala Necklace 108 Beads - 7 mm

Sacred Phoenix Eye Motif: Each genuine seed features a naturally occurring, prominent elliptical slit resembling an open eye. Deeply revered in Tibetan and Himalayan Buddhist lineages, this sacred "Phoenix Eye" pattern symbolizes spiritual vision, clarity, divine insight, and heightened mindful awareness during practice. Premium Texture & Rare Small Sizing: Masterfully sourced to ensure a smoother, tighter, and uniform disc-like shape compared to standard seeds. Authentic small-sized Phoenix Eye seeds (typically 7 mm) are exceptionally rare, highly prized in the market, and favored by practitioners for their comfortable feel during long meditation sessions. Deep Auburn Mahogany Patina: Showcases a rich, warm, reddish-brown natural hue with a subtle, organic luster. With regular handling and mantra recitation Japa, these high-quality Bodhi seeds naturally absorb skin oils, causing them to darken, polish, and develop a beautiful, deep, glass-like petrified patina over time. Distinctive Hand-Carved Guru Bead: Features an exceptionally large, intricate focal Guru bead that stands out significantly at the center alignment. Crafted from a heavily textured, aged seed segment—resembling a multi-faced Rudraksha or specialized variant—it provides an unmistakable tactile marker to signify the completion of a prayer circuit. HOW TO USE IT: Hold your mala with one hand and let it drape across your fingers so you can move it easily. After that complete one full breath (inhale and exhale), move your fingers to the next bead breathing in and out once per bead. Finish at the guru bead to complete 108 breaths. GENUINE QUALITY: Hand made by our MASTER artisans from various parts of Kathmandu Valley in Nepal under a fair-trade practice.
