Description
Leaf from the Bodhi Tree in Indian where Shakyamuni Buddha attained enlightenment.
Brought from Bodhgaya and offered by a Tibetan Medicine student: "It's small offering but I have a laminated Bodhi leaf that fell from the Bodhi Tree at Mahabodhi stupa in Bodhgaya (Dorje Den/ seat of the Buddhas) Can only be obtained by waiting for it to fall from tree as picking leaves is strictly verboten. Some folks wait all day to get one. I personally obtained it from the Bodhi tree. Not sure of value, but for practitioner is very precious and very auspicious, nearly unobtainable."
