Pure Guggul Incense Sticks

Guggul resin (also known as Gugul) has been used for centuries in Tibet, where it holds an important place in both Tibetan Medicine (Sowa Rigpa) and Tibetan Buddhist practice. In Buddhist rituals, guggul is prized for its strong purifying qualities. It is burned to dispel negative forces and mental obstacles, to establish protective boundaries at the start of spiritual practice, and to cleanse temples and prayer halls during pujas. Many monasteries continue to use it daily as part of their ceremonial incense.

Within Sowa Rigpa, guggul was adopted from Indian medical traditions and is valued for its warming, penetrating nature. It is traditionally blended with other herbs to support the joints, nerves, skin, and metabolism, and its aromatic smoke is believed to purify both spaces and objects. Tibetan healers also describe guggul as having a “scraping” quality, helping to clear blockages in the body’s channels and restore balance.

Each pack contains selected quantity of hand-crafted premium Masala incense. Average burn time: 40–45 minutes per stick. Made with precious natural resins, pure essential oils and fine absolutes.
