Yangdrub Incense — Tibetan Herbal Sticks Pack of 2

Description

Yangdrub — the Tibetan term for “wealth and prosperity summoning” — is a herbal incense formulated specifically for yang-drub rituals, the ceremonial practice of inviting abundance and auspicious energy into a household, business, or sacred space.

Among Himalayan Buddhist communities, it occupies the upper tier of ritual incense: the formulation incorporates the “three whites” (curd, butter, milk) and “three sweets” (sugar, honey, molasses), the traditional sacred offering ingredients that distinguish purification-grade incense from everyday blends and make it appropriate for ceremonies requiring strict ritual purity.

Each stick is made using the coreless masala method — the traditional Tibetan incense form in which raw herbs, resins, and aromatic woods are ground to a fine powder, combined with water and the ritual food substances to form a cohesive dough, then hand-rolled or extruded into uniform solid sticks with no central bamboo or wooden core.

The botanical base draws from the Biligiri Rangam hills surrounding the Dhondenling settlement — sharp, grounding juniper at its core, layered with locally cultivated and wild-harvested Himalayan herbs. Sticks are naturally dried to preserve the full aromatic and therapeutic integrity of the plant materials.

This set of two boxes — 24 sticks per box, 48 sticks in total — suits a sustained daily practice or serves as a considered gift for a practitioner establishing a home altar or puja corner. Yangdrub is produced by the Dhondenling Primary Agricultural Co-operative Society (DPACS), a Tibetan refugee community in Kollegal Taluk, Karnataka, established in 1974; production provides income for elderly settlement members and funds local welfare projects directly.
