What is the symbolism of this bodhi and yak bone mala?
Bodhi seeds are an important bringer of happiness, inspiration and devotion for Buddhists and Hindus.
The Bodhi tree was a large and very old sacred fig tree (Ficus religiosa) located in Bodh Gaya under which Siddhartha Gautama, later known as Buddha, would meditate until he attained enlightenment and thus attained the state of Bodhi.
In India, Bodhi malas are often smeared with neem oil; In addition to medicinal properties, the neem tree also has the property of being insect repellent.
The use of yak bones in making malas is a traditional practice in Tibetan Buddhism.
Bones and bones are generally often seen as ominous and dark.
However, in Buddhism they are considered a part of the infinite karmic cycle of birth, life, death and rebirth.
