Who grew this bead
Listed by Susan Dahal, in the Arun and Tamur valleys of eastern Nepal. They picked it, photographed it and set its price. We check the bead in Kathmandu, answer your questions, take the payment and ship it — and the farmer is paid directly, rather than through the middleman who would otherwise take most of it.
What the 7 Mukhi means in tradition
Mahalakshmi, goddess of fortune
The seven-faced bead belongs to Mahalakshmi, and it is the tradition's answer to scarcity — not sudden riches, but the steady return of right livelihood. It is also read as an appeasement of Saturn, the slow teacher, whose lessons arrive as hardship.
For centuries it has been the bead of shopkeepers, farmers, and householders through lean seasons: worn with the understanding that fortune, in this tradition, follows dharma rather than luck.
Traditional associations as the texts and living practice hand them down — not medical claims, and not promised outcomes.
Listed by the grower. Mukhi count, size and weight are as they recorded them — we check every bead in Kathmandu before it ships, and will tell you plainly if anything differs.
