1.What are Bodhi seeds?

Bodhi seeds are not the seeds of a particular plant, but a collective term for a large group of plant seeds that can be made into jewelry such as beads and strings. Just like we call apples, bananas and oranges fruits. Among the many Bodhi seeds, Vajra Bodhi, Star Moon Bodhi, and Phoenix Eye Bodhi are the most popular. Vajra Bodhi comes from a tall tree that is particularly hard, like steel, hence the name “Vajra”; Star Moon Bodhi has many small black dots on its surface and a small circle in the center, which looks like stars surrounding the moon; and Phoenix Eye Bodhi gets its name because the shape of its buds and eyes are very much like eyes. These seeds grow out of the fruit of the plant, and after processing, they become treasures that people love.

Moreover, the hardness of Bodhi seed also symbolizes that one should be resilient like it when facing difficulties.

From a health perspective, Bodhi seeds also have a number of benefits. When you play with a Bodhi seed string, it rubs against the skin of your hand as if you were giving your hand a massage, stimulating the acupoints on your hand, allowing for better blood circulation, relieving hand fatigue, and also making your finger joints more flexible. Some Bodhi seeds themselves contain natural botanicals, and although it is not entirely clear how these work, they have long been believed to help calm the mind and reduce stress. In addition, plating Bodhi seeds requires quieting the mind, a process that is inherently relaxing and good for your health.

The process of coiling Bodhi seeds is particularly interesting! When you first get it in your hand, it is ordinary in color and the surface is not smooth. But as long as you patiently play with it every day and take care of it, it will slowly undergo a magical transformation. Over time, its surface will become brighter and brighter, forming a layer of glass-like luster, the color will become darker, better looking, and finally reach a crystal clear state, as if by magic. In this process, you can witness its metamorphosis with your own eyes, and each change fills you with a sense of accomplishment, as well as cultivating patience and improving your aesthetic ability.

Later, times changed and more and more people fell in love with Bodhi seeds, and it was no longer only related to religion, but also became a popular cultural toy and jewelry.
