Description

This Nepali incense rope is made up of herbs found in the high Himalayas and is abundantly used in Stupas, Temples and drawing rooms for aromatic ambience.

Basil greets the senses with its herbaceous and slightly peppery notes, evoking the warmth of summer garden. Spiritually it brings balance between your body, mind and spirit. Its scent warms your soul and can bring spiritual clarity. It is often used as an offering to ward away evil spirits and is believed to open the path to heaven.

Incense ropes are made by hand in a process that involves bundling the ingredients in a special hand prepared rice paper, then rolling and twisting it into a small rope-like braided form. The rope should be burnt in a marble or metal dish,  or on an ash bed, a special incense burner. This rope type of incense can produce a substantial amount of smoke, and it can quickly overpower a small room so use it sparingly.

Time of burning one rope is approx 15min.
