About this piece
This incense is hand-crafted in Nepal by practitioners described as yogis, using traditional Tibetan incense-making methods and Himalayan botanicals. The set is presented as “Senju Kannon Ko” (Thousand-Armed Kannon Incense) and consists of eighty-eight sticks made from a mixed recipe including sandalwood, juniper materials, herbs, and warming spices. It has been blessed with prayers at Gotokuzan Mizusawa Temple, where the Eleven-Faced Thousand-Armed Kannon Bodhisattva is enshrined as the main deity—reflecting a tradition of preparing incense as an offering item connected to established devotional settings.
Cultural note
In Japan, Kannon (Avalokiteśvara) is widely revered as a compassionate bodhisattva, and Senju Kannon—often depicted with many arms—expresses the idea of responding to suffering in many ways. Incense is commonly used in Buddhist temples and home altars as a quiet offering and as a way to mark a clean, attentive atmosphere. When keeping or using items associated with Kannon, a respectful approach is to treat them as devotional goods: handle with clean hands, avoid placing them directly on the floor, and choose a calm, tidy location where they won’t be treated casually.
