Creeping Juniper, or Shukpa, is the foundational ingredient in sang offerings and an integral part of Himalayan Buddhist ritual. This high-quality ground juniper powder is sourced directly from a respected vendor at Boudha Stupa in Nepal, ensuring both authenticity and purity. Used daily at sacred sites throughout the Himalayas, it brings the sanctity of those places directly into your own practice.
Symbolism & Meaning
In Tibetan Buddhism, Shukpa represents purification and renewal. When burned, its smoke is offered to the Three Jewels, local spirits, and protectors as part of the sang-chö and lhasang practices. The fragrant smoke symbolizes the transformation of negativity and the establishment of auspicious conditions for Dharma activity.
