$715.00 USD

Inca Rose prayer beads of the Soto Zen sect.


Inca Rose is also known as rhodochrosite, and its origin is Greek, meaning "red color." It is loved by many people even in modern times.

Inca Rose, which has a cute pink or red color, is a popular stone among women, and is said to be particularly effective in romantic relationships.

As the name of the stone suggests, the rose-like pink color gives a calm impression, and the pink and white stripes are a cute stone.

These prayer beads can be used by people of all ages.

About the Soto Zen sect

The shape of the prayer beads of the Soto Zen sect is very similar to that of the Rinzai sect, but a characteristic of the Soto Zen sect is that the prayer beads have metal rings running through them.
It is unclear why they are there, but one theory is that these rings represent Bodhidharma.
