Tibetan Incense


The craft of making incense was established in Tibet by monks who laid down recipes specifying the exact nature and amount of each ingredient used. TPure Natural Large Tibetan Herbal Incense Sticks: Stickless logs, Fragrance free, Ooil free -

Healing, Meditation, Pancha Buddla, Green Tara, Kuan Yin, Tasi Tagge. Tibetan incenses are typically made from between 20 and 100 different herbs, woods, spices and minerals. The ingredients are dried then ground and mixed into a paste. This paste is squeezed and shaped into long sticks which are cut and then dried.
These incenses are used in Tibetan culture for many purposes - as an offering to the deities; to still the mind as an aid to relaxation and meditation; to heal disorders of the mind and body; to alleviate stress; to ward off negative energies; and, not least, to scent the air.Our Tibetan incenses are all of a very high quality, made according to traditional recipes and methods.
