Blessed and Cleansed by the Buddha

THIS BRACELET SYMBOLISM ☼☽

In Tibetan history and culture, the yak is not only a vital source of survival but also a sacred symbol of resilience, courage, and enduring life force. Yak bones are regarded as gifts from nature, and traditionally, Tibetans crafted them into prayer beads or amulets to honor the animal’s faithful service and to seek blessings from the Buddha.

In Vajrayana Buddhism, yak bone bracelets are often used as ritual tools, reminding the wearer to cherish time and cultivate inner peace. Each yak bone bracelet embodies the Tibetan people's reverence for nature, gratitude for life, and commitment to spiritual practice.

Today, yak bone bracelets are more than cultural relics — they serve as vessels of Tibetan craftsmanship and spirituality, bridging the ancient with the present.

Dzi beads

In Tibetan, Dzi beads are called “གཟི” (Dzi), meaning “shine,” “auspiciousness,” or “splendor.” They are among the most revered and mysterious spiritual objects in Tibetan culture, often referred to as “heavenly pearls.” With a history spanning over 2,000 years, the exact origin of Dzi beads is still debated, but Tibetans believe they are infused with divine energy and closely aligned with Buddhist teachings. They are said to offer protection, bring good fortune, ward off evil, and attract blessings.

Tibetan Gau Boxes

The Tibetan Gau box (also spelled Ghau or Gao) is a traditional amulet container, deeply rooted in Tibetan Buddhism and Himalayan culture. Often referred to as a “prayer box” or “amulet box,” a Gau is a small, portable shrine typically made of metal and worn around the neck or chest. It holds sacred items such as miniature statues, scriptures, blessed relics, or family heirlooms — serving as a spiritual shield that brings protection and blessings.
