The Fragrance Goddess

This wonderful handmade Tibetan incense is a tribute to the Dakini, Dri-Chaap-Ma, the fragrance goddess. The entire processing from the selection of herbs to the packing is done in the same way that the Lamas used to for offering to the gods. Natural herbs and spices are pressed together in a masala preparation and shaped into the Tibetan style sticks.
~ 25 thick sticks, 8 1/2" long
~ all natural with no wooden sticks, glues, or dyes
~ composed of numerous precious Himalayan herbs
~ made based on the traditional Men-Ngak formula
~ beautifully wrapped in blended Lotka and recycled paper

Lotka refers to a small woody plant of the Laurel family that grows at over 6000 feet in the Himalayas, and has been traditionally used in Nepal to make paper. Lotka paper is a renewable resource, and provides a source of income to paper crafting families and village communities. For you to consider, the following is from the maker's packaging:

"Dri-Chaap-Ma the Fragrance Goddess is the Dakini who offers scented water to the gods. Multiplying her form and filling the entire sky, the offerings become an ocean of offerings. In this incense, the fragrance of kapur, naki, and jyamtsoey, buwa, apart from the numerous other prescribed herbs, give out the fragrance of the most precious perfumes. It has been made based on the Men-Ngak formula according to the Tibetan tradition. The entire processing right from the selection of the herbs to the packing is done in the same way the Lamas used to for Choed-Pa or offering to the gods. This incense is a tribute to the Dakini that it is named after. We pray that your purchase and use of this incense will be beneficial to all beings. Thank you. "
