Why Choose Red Lotus Tibetan Incense

Red Lotus Incense is a smooth, uplifting fragrance that the owner of Tibetan Spirit, Dorlop Rinpoche (Dr. Lye), discovered during a recent visit to Nepal. In late 2024, while attending the historic two-month transmission of the 18-volume Dam Ngak Dzö by H.H. Drikung Kyabgön Chetsang, Dr. Lye was staying at a hotel in Boudha. Each morning, the hotel’s front desk would burn a stick of incense.

At first, he recognized the familiar scent of Karma Happiness—a popular incense we also carry. But one morning, the fragrance lingering in the air was something new. That incense was Red Lotus.

This particular incense is well-suited for those living in smaller spaces or for anyone who prefers a gentler fragrance. It’s less intense than traditional Tibetan incense, yet it still permeates the space with a grounding presence. At the same time, its upper notes bring an unmistakable sense of uplift.

Dr. Lye knew instantly that we had to offer it—and it has quickly become our favorite.
