Ancient Fire Blood Lotus Carnelian Mala

• Limited to 5. A DharmaShop signature exclusive built at the intersection of ancient protection and modern vitality.
• This one of a kind mala features a tactile rhythm of 6mm and 8mm Carnelian and sacred Rudraksha seed beads. Hand-knotted pauses between the larger Carnelian create moments for deeper focus, while the unknotted sections allow the mala to drape naturally and move with ease.
• At it's center is the true heart: An antique Pema Raka Carnelian focal bead, sourced through a long time friend and globally trusted collector known for uncovering rare Dzi and ancient Himalyan stones. Estimated to be over 100 years old, this genuine collector's piece comes with a story to carry with you.

Among Tibet’s most prized stones, Pema Raka Carnelian is believed to have traveled from the Indus Valley into the Himalayas along the Silk Road centuries ago. Historically treasured for its potency, small fragments were even once incorporated into traditional Tibetan medicine. These beads have long been seen as vessels of strength: symbols of joy, strength, and renewal. Carnelian is also associated with the Sacral Chakra, believed to awaken confidence, creativity, and life-force energy.

To ground the fiery energy of Carnelian, we paired it with two of the most revered seeds in Himalayan tradition. A Bodhi Seed guru bead honors the Buddha's enlightenment, while Rudraksha seed beads bring nature's steadiness and protective presence. Together, these sacred materials speak to the full path: energy and calm, courage and compassion, strength and awakening.
