Lama Chodpa means "supreme offering". Lama Chodpa incense is a pure Tibetan monastic incense, made by hand using all-natural ingredients. It is prepared traditionally in the Himalayn village of Tashi Jong, a Tibetan village located in northern India, according to the instructions of ancient Tibetan manuscripts. Your purchase supports Nub Gon Monastery and other community based welfare projects. |
| More than thirty medicinal herbs and precious substances are used in the making of Lama Chodpa Incense. |
 |
| Once the ingredients are thoroughly dried, they are ground by hand using mortar and pestle. |  |
| The precious substances are measured carefully to achieve just the right blend. |  |
| The ingredients are mixed together by hand... |
 |
| ... and kneaded into a paste. |  |
| The paste is fed through a hand-operated unit to create the individual sticks and cut into 5 or 8 inch lengths. |
 |
| The sticks are then carefully arranged and left to dry in open air. |  |
| The incense sticks are then bundled by hand and given one last airing before being packaged. |  |
| The bundles are packed in cardboard tubing which is then wrapped with handmade paper. Finally the tubes are sealed with an auspicious symbol using red wax. |  |
