TIBETAN INCENSE!

We have just finished adding some Tibetan incense to our ACCESSORIES PAGE for you to order here through our website.

All natural, all handmade, these blends are used for meditation, space purification as well as ritual / devotional use.

Here is a sample description from one of the bundle packages:

NAMO BUDDHA INCENSE: "This particular incense "Namo Buddha" has been prepared according to the instructions and mores laid down in Buddhist Texts. The contents in This incense has been collected from the high and unexplored mountains, the hot tiger prowling plains and the vast seas. The ingredints are just Natural Herbs collected and mixed in right proportions. The composition of this incense consists of 48 different types of medicinal herbs and plants.

This particular incense is specially used while meditating and along with the concentrating power it is supposed to give purity and peace to the person involved." Made by Hand in Nepal.


We also have some NEPALI DHOOP (Incense)

Aromatic Nepali Dhoop, Incense - Very high quality, hand-made in Nepal.

"Perfectly safe for the inhalation and the environments as well."

Natural essential oil, flowers, leaves, fruits, peels, grasses, wood, bark, resins, roots, spices. Aromatic herbs using only natural binders, these incense are perfect/made especially for Aromatherapy. A 'joss' type, without a wooden stick, they are pure incense. Because of the quality and lack of burning wood, these blends have been acceptable to many people suffering from allergies and hay fever, people who cannot usually burn incense.

Approximately 19 sticks, 19 cm long per bundle, (aprox. 7-1/2 inches) widths vary depending on the blend.

Here are some sample package informations:

FRANKINCENSE: A haunting fragrance, woody, spicy with a hint of lemon. Relaxing, uplifting, calming and mildly antiseptic. Frankincense means 'real Incense'. it used to be burnt as an offering to the gods and used as an aid to meditation, a tradition still in practice in some religions. Slows down breathing producing feelings of calmness. This tends to bring about elevating and soothing effects on the mind. Particularly helpful in cleaning the lungs, has excellent effect on respiration, eases shortness of breath and useful to Asthma sufferers.

GERANIUM: Sweet and heavy, a little like rose with minty overtones. Once regarded as a great healing plant and often used as a remedy for wounds, tumors, choleras and fractures. To the nervous system, quells anxiety and depression and uplifts the spirits. Puts mind back into balance. Perfect to put you in a good mood, gives you energy or relax you totally.


Also added are HEM INCENSE from India. Fragrant, playful, simply wonderful to help brighten your daily world and work spaces. With 33 different fragrances there is something for everybody! And since they are available through a 'drop down menu' on the site, here is the complete list:

A SCOUNDREL

Beyond that, we are currently dealing with a real scoundrel at the YouTube site.  This person is grabbing Emile's singing bowl videos, changing the titles, digitally altering them to remove Emile's and the Temple Sounds names, fact that it is copyrighted material, our website and everything else connected with us and plastering his own website URL over the whole thing, claiming it as his own in order to sell singing bowls and the like from his website. We have been able to have him banned once, yet he just comes back the next day with a new username and re-uploads the videos. (We are not the only one he is doing it to either.) If you come across them or have found your own videos have been hijacked, please contact YouTube (or us if it is one of ours). Thank you.
