$715.00 USD

Limited to one item, we have combined the rare Indian Bodhi Tree with Lapis Lazuli!


There are many types of Bodhi Trees, such as the Starry Moon Bodhi Tree, the Dragon Eye Bodhi Tree, and the Phoenix Eye Bodhi Tree,
Among them, the Indian Bodhi Tree is said to be the king of Bodhi Trees and is considered a rare material.
The reason why the Indian Bodhi Tree is a rare material is that it can only be found at high altitudes and is not available in large quantities.

The Indian Bodhi Tree is a nut.
It is very hard and has a gentle texture unique to nuts when you hold it.

We cannot introduce the Indian Bodhi Tree until it arrives in stock.

The rosary shown here is made with lapis lazuli as the heavenly beads, parent beads, and drop beads.

Lapis lazuli, along with quartz crystal, is a natural stone that is considered to be the oldest and most powerful power stone.
In many countries around the world, it is considered a "sacred stone" that exorcises evil spirits.
Large beads of lapis lazuli are very rare and highly valuable.

This is a limited edition, so please purchase it as soon as possible.

★About the sect
Regarding Shingon Buddhist prayer beads, one theory is that it was the Shingon sect that first brought prayer beads to Japan.
Therefore, the shape is very similar to the formal prayer beads that are used by all eight sects.
The shape is often with two tassels on the front and back, each with a red string running through them.
The prayer beads that people carry with them on pilgrimages are also slightly longer versions of these Shingon Buddhist prayer beads.
