Bo Rim (Paper Case):
 Carefully hand-made by a Zen Buddhist monk of the highest quality all natural ingredients, this is the incense burned by His Holiness, the 14th Dalai Lama of Tibet. It is a very delicate but wondrously fragrant blend of Aloes wood and Chinese juniper, which imparts a clean, fresh scent believed to remove blockages in the mind and body. It can be used to create a space for meditation or guests, and comes in an ash wood tube. Each stick burns for approximately 40 minutes.
 Korean incense is closer in essence to Japanese style incense. Very delicate, yet wonderfully fragrant. A tradition steeped in the Korean culture, incense from Korea has clean, fresh scent which can be used to create a space for meditation or guests.
Incense, has its roots back in mankind's first experiences with fire itself. It is unlikely primitive man would have missed the fact that certain woods had more pleasing aromas and indeed varying emotional effects. Incense artifacts, thousands of years old, have be found in throughout the world, and appear to be a part of virtually every culture. The connection between incense, religions, medicine, and shaman practices is obvious, it would be impossible to separate them, or say which proceeded the other. Historically it is difficult to trace because it has always been largely an esoteric and oral tradition evolving in relation to both religion and medicine. |
