A deep companion for focused meditation
The Vajrayogini Meditation Tibetan incense stick, with its deep, resinous-earthy aroma, can be your best companion when you prepare for a longer, more serious meditation session. In Tibetan tradition, Vajrayogini is the female figure of transforming, inner strength, and this incense was originally composed for her practice. If you wish for a deeper, quieter evening of meditation, this stick can be a kind companion.
What is in the blend?
The stick is made of Tibetan herbs and a higher proportion of natural resins, rolled around a wooden core. The aroma is deeper, earthy, resinous – not sweet, not floral. There is no synthetic fragrance, so the natural, traditional scent comes through cleanly during the meditation session and supports turning the attention inward and going deeper inside.
When is it worth lighting?
Many people light a Vajrayogini stick when they prepare for a longer, more serious meditation practice. Others choose it for the quiet hours of weekend retreats, or for the start of an important piece of inner work. It can be a fitting choice for longer breathing exercises, quiet self-reflection, mantra repetition or a long, deeper evening of thinking, when you wish to walk through an inner question calmly.
Proper lighting
Take a stick, light the tip and blow out the flame so only the ember remains. Place it in a stable holder that catches the ash. One stick burns for about forty to fifty minutes, just right for a longer meditation session. Air the room while it burns, and never leave the ember unattended for even a single moment while it is still warm and quietly glowing inside.
Things to know before buying
The pack contains fifteen to twenty sticks, so it lasts for many weeks. Because this is a hand-made natural product, the aroma may vary slightly from stick to stick – this is the mark of the traditional technique, not a fault. Store the pack in a dry, cool place so the aroma remains deep and serious for a long time for your next practice session at home.
