Triloka Ayurvedic Chakra Incense

Our Ayurvedic Chakra incense line has been custom blended to incorporate ancient knowledge of Vedic medicine and the yogic knowledge of the energy that emanates through the charkas (energy centers of the body).  Ayurveda, the “science of healthy life” originated in the Himalayas thousands of years ago. Aromatherapy has been part of this Vedic tradition for ages. In Ayurveda, certain flowers, woods, herbs, resins, and oils are recommended to bring about the balance of energy resulting in a healthy body and mind. We have taken great care to create incense that not only smells wonderful, but also emits the beneficial vibrations of the plant essence. In some instances we have blended the plant in its various forms (i.e. rose oil and rose petals) to enhance the energy of the incense while burning.
Chakra is a Sanskrit word meaning wheel or vortex. We have seven main Chakras (energy centers).
Each Chakra is connected to certain parts of the body, as well as with our mind and spiritual development. Chakras can be activated and balanced to create a life of harmony, health and spiritual awakening. Our package design for the Chakra incense reflects the traditional symbol and color of each Chakra. The back of the packaging provides an explanation of the Chakra, the special ingredients used, their benefits, as well as general information about Chakras and the science of Ayurveda.

Triloka Feng Shui Incense

Triloka Ayurvedic Meditation Incense

Triloka Ayurvedic incense is hand blended and hand rolled. The base is a sandalwood powder combined with traditional mixtures of herbs, gums, resins, etc. The herbs used are from a traditional Ayurvedic recipe.
Herbs and resins with various qualities are blended in their natural form. No oils are used, only frankincense and gum type resins. All this is ground together along with the sandalwood powder to create a masala or mixture of herbs.
Traditionally, these herbs, or masala, were burned on coals. We have rolled these herbs onto bamboo sticks to make them easier to use. The nature of the substance used in the Ayurvedic incense requires that it be thicker, therefore these sticks have a longer burning time than most.
We highly recommend the Ayurvedic incense for meditation and other types of relaxing or healing activities. They can also be used to create smoke for “clearing” crystals and other objects. These types of herbs would traditionally be burned in public places or in temples to insure the attraction of good spirits or to alleviate any negative entities in the atmosphere.

Triloka Ayurvedic Meditation incense is based on the Ayurvedic Tri-Dosha system of balance.  Triloka Ayurvedic Meditation incense is intended to be “dosha-enhnacing”. Use Vatta to increase the “Air” dosha, for example.

Ayurvedic Red – Pitta (Fire)- This incense is prepared following the genuine, traditional blending of incense. This completely herbal mixture contains more than eighty pure, aromatic Ayurvedic herbs. The mild aroma of this incense is perfect for spreading peace and aroma in meditation and healing ceremonies.

Ayurvedic Blue – Vatta (Air) - Prepared strictly in accordance with ancient traditional incense manufacturing techniques. Uses many rare Ayurvedic aromatic and purifying herbs, roots and resins.

Ayurvedic Green- Kapha (Water) - This stick is a traditional blend of ten Ayurvedic spices and herbs. According to Ayurveda, burning of these ten ingredients has a purifying and soothing effect on atmosphere and mind.

Palo Santo - the newest addition to our popular smudge line

Palo Santo is an aromatic wood used for thousands of years as a healing incense by Shamans and the ancient Incas. Today, Palo Santo continues to be sustainably harvested in the dry forests of Ecuador and Peru. Harvesting occurs only after the tree has died and laid untouched in its natural habitat for several years. This process permits the sacred, medicinal and mystical properties of the wood to manifest. Palo Santo is gaining global awareness for its healing qualities. Palo Santo has a citrus aroma with underlying hints of frankincense. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of our Palo Santo is dedicated to replanting Palo Santo trees. Triloka Palo Santo is packaged in biodegradable bags with eco-friendly tags.

Seven-Metal Singing Bowls

A singing bowl is a type of bell shaped as a bowl. They come in many shapes and sizes and ours are made using seven metals: copper, tin, iron zinc, lead, silver and gold. Singing bowls were traditionally made throughout Asia. The tradition continues today in Nepal, India, China, and Japan. Vibration is the most essential characteristic of singing bowls. For centuries the pure vibrations of singing bowls have been used for healing, meditation, making music and purifying negative influences. Doctors have used them for diagnostics, Monks used them for offerings, and Shamans used them for esoteric purposes.

How to play a singing bowl: Singing bowls are played by striking or “singing”. Bells are made to be struck, and singing bowls sound wonderful when struck with a soft mallet or wooden stick. Larger bowls may also be made to “sing” by rubbing a stick around the lip of the bowl, which produces a chord of harmonic tones. The sound is soothing and relaxing, inducing peace and tranquility.
Care Instructions: Wash with soapy water to clean, and dry thoroughly.  Do not drop on a hard surface or hit with another metal object.

Seven-Metal Singing Bowls

Tibetan Cymbals (Tingshas)

Our Tingshas are made in sets of two, and matched according to the tone. They are made of a special alloy with the thickness and shape being important elements in creating the beautiful overtones. The Tibetan Tingshas are traditionally used for ceremonial functions throughout the Himalayan regions of Nepal, Tibet, India and Bhutan. When struck together the sound fills the atmosphere with reverberating overtones and helps one to clear the mind of thoughts. Tingshas are used before a meditation sitting or while chanting mantras. They can also be used with certain instruments but are not specifically tuned.  Various motifs accompany the Tingshas - the most popular are mantras, the eight auspicious symbols, or dragons. The dragon is a symbol of supreme spirituality and the image of divine power of transformation.

Copper Bracelets

Copper Facts: Copper was the first metal known to man. For 10,000 years it has been fashioned into jewelry and small tools. Copper has high conductivity, is malleable and flexible which explains its extensive use, from electrical wiring to building materials. Recent research shows that copper inhibits bacterial growth. Copper is also an important mineral, necessary for metabolism of all living organisms. We ingest it through different foods.

Uses of Copper Bracelets : The use of metals for medicinal purposes is found throughout recorded history. For more than 30 years copper bracelets have been popular. There have been claims that the wearing of copper bracelets alleviates the symptoms of arthritis, rheumatism, tendonitis, and carpal tunnel syndrome.

Caution: These copper bracelets are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease. Do not use this product as a substitute for necessary treatment. Consult a physician before use if any medical condition exists.

Cleaning instructions: Bracelet may discolor with use.
Immerse in a mixture of white vinegar and table salt and copper will shine like new! Rinse with water and dry immediately.

All of our copper bracelets come with information cards about copper bracelets, and bracelets containing magnets, dragons, or mantras have explanations of those features as well.

Magnet Facts: Magnetic fields can be generated by natural phenomena, i.e. the earth’s magnetism, solar storms or the chemical reactions in the human body. They are also created by electrical devices such as motors, power lines, computers, etc. While strong magnetic fields of electrical equipment can be harmful to health, controlled magnetic fields can be used to increase physical health and healing. Research has shown that magnetic field therapy may alleviate and reduce pain, improve circulation and support the body’s healing abilities. Learn more about magnetic field therapy over the internet or at the library.

Dragon Lore: In China the Dragon is an auspicious symbol of spirituality and the power of transformation. It represents “Yang,” the masculine energy, strength, activity and the principals of heaven. Thus it is the emblem of the Imperial Family. Feng Shui uses the Dragon as the principal symbol of good land formations and the Dragon’s breath “Chi” is the symbol of cosmic breath or life energy. Chinese astrology shows the Dragon as the symbol for the years 2000, 1988, 1976, 1964, 1952, 1940, 1928, etc. We wish you good luck with this powerful symbol.

OM Namah Shivaya : The Mantra (prayer) “OM Namah Shivaya” means “I honor the divine within.” In Asian tradition, Mantras appear on art or objects of daily use as a reminder to practice silent prayer. These Mantras are regarded as protective and liberating

Copper Bracelets

Sandalwood Bracelets

Our Sandalwood bracelets are made from a total of 28 pure Mysore Sandalwood beads from Southern India. Based on Vedic and Buddhist tradition, the large bead represents the teacher or teachings, and is called the Meru Bead, named after the mystical mountain named Meru. Sandalwood is calming, cooling and helps to facilitate meditation. The natural fragrance of the sandalwood beads will last for years, with no oils added.

Sandalwood Bracelets

Rudraksha Seed Bracelet

The term “Rudraksha” has been derived from the combination of two Sanskrit words, Rudra meaning “Lord Shiva” and aksha meaning tears. Based on Vedic and Hindu scriptures, the mystical powers of the Rudraksha beads are said to bring the wearer health, happiness, and success, and to facilitate meditation.
