Men's prayer beads, Starry Moon Bodhi tree, 18 beads, genuine amber, string tassel

We have prepared this product in genuine amber.

Starry-moon bodhi tree is a nut found on Hainan Island in China.

The reason it is called "starry moon" is because of the appearance of the starry-moon bodhi tree's fruit, which is covered with countless spots.


Among the countless spots, there is one large spot.


This large spot is a mark made when the fruit is picked from the stem, and it remains as a deeper and larger spot than the others.


The countless small spots represent the "stars" in the night sky, and the large spot represents the "moon".
For this reason, the fruit of the bodhi tree with black spots on the white fruit is called starry-moon bodhi tree.


The starry-moon bodhi tree is also said to represent the world of Buddha.


This comes from the fact that the fruit of the starry linden tree is likened to the stars and moon in the night sky,
and since ancient times it has been believed that the fruit of the starry linden tree represents the universe, and that the universe is the world of Buddha.
