Tibetan incense is produced in Tibet, Nepal's northern regions, and Bhutan. Tibetan incense is a significant symbol of Tibetan culture. The aroma of this incense is described as "earthy" or "herbal." Tibetan incense can have up to 30 ingredients in it. Tibetan incense, like other Asian incense, is extruded into lengths or coils rather than coiled around a bamboo stick. Incense is used as a therapy for a type of disease in Tibetan medicine. This information may be found in Tibetan medical literature based on the four Tantras (Root Tantra, Tantra of Enlightenment, Tantra of Instructions, and Concluding Tantra), also known in Tibetan as rGyudbzhi. It is the foundational work on which Tibetan medicine is founded today. According to Tibetan medical theory, the universe is made up of five proto-elements: sa (earth), chu (water), me (fire), rLung (wind or air), and Nam-mkha (space). Except for Nam-mkha, only four play a role in classifying our illnesses. There are eight active forces and 17 properties in each element. Some of these elements are found in our three body energies, and their imbalance disrupts the three 'fluids" equilibrium (rLung, mkhrispa, and badkan).
These medical and monastic recipes were created during the Buddha's time, almost 2500 years ago, by blending various components. Herbs, plants, flowers, leaves, grass, wood, bark, spices, and minerals are still mixed in exact proportions with these formulations. Tibetan incense produces a rich, earthy, and clean aroma that can help relieve and calm a restless mind when burned. It's commonly used to cleanse the environment and as a meditation and relaxation aid. It is frequently used in Tibetan medicine to treat depression, stress, and anxiety. Daily incense or sung offerings are an important element of Tibetan culture, and most HOUSES and MONASTERIES have a dedicated space for them.
