Tara Incense — Tibetan Herbal Sticks Pack of 2

Description

Tara Incense takes its name from the bodhisattva Tara — revered across the Tibetan Buddhist tradition as the embodiment of swift compassion and the swift remover of obstacles — and is formulated as a dedicated offering to invoke her blessings, protection, and healing energy. Within the Sowa Rigpa tradition, incense burned as Dhupa functions not as decoration but as prayer made tangible: rising smoke carrying intention, mantra, and gratitude as an Antahkarana, a bridge between the practitioner and the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Dharma protectors.

Each stick is a pure masala blend — coreless, free of synthetic binders and artificial fragrance — drawn from 21 to 31 high-altitude medicinal herbs: white and red sandalwood, spikenard (jatamansi), Nepal cardamom, cloves, cinnamon bark, myrrh, and Himalayan resins. The herbs are cold-ground using a traditional water mill, mixed with natural resin binders, hand-extruded through a cow-horn press, and shade-dried — a process designed to preserve both the aromatic depth and the medicinal integrity of each herb.

This Sowa Rigpa formulation works through the olfactory and respiratory pathways to address the Three Humors — Lung (Wind), Tripa (Bile), and Pekan (Phlegm) — easing accumulated mental tension, stress, and anxiety while raising the quality of a space.

These sticks suit daily puja on a home altar, sustained meditation practice, and Losar or festival offerings as naturally as they suit quiet personal use — and the warm saffron packaging and distinctive salmon-pink sticks make this a considered gift for diaspora households and cultural practitioners. Each Pack of 2 is produced by DPACS (Dhondenling Primary Agricultural Co-operative Society), sourced from the Tibetan refugee community in Karnataka using herbs wild-gathered from the Biligiri Rangam hills, and dispatched from Kalimpong, West Bengal, by BHUTIB.
