In ancient India, the leaves of the Beleaf Palm were used to create Buddhist scriptures, known as "Pothi." Over time, Bodhi roots will change color and may develop natural cracks with prolonged use, making them a cherished material for prayer beads. Symbolism of Bodhi Seeds Bodhi seeds hold deep spiritual significance in Buddhism. They symbolize enlightenment, wisdom, knowledge, and the path to Nirvana, reflecting the Buddha's awakening under the Bodhi tree. They are also considered a talisman for peace and protection, believed to bring harmony to the wearer. According to Buddhist scriptures, using Bodhi seeds in prayer can yield boundless merits, making them one of the most widely used ritual items. There are over 300 varieties of Bodhi seeds, with 18 types commonly used for prayer beads, known as the "Eighteen Bodhi Beads." Among these, the Star-Moon Bodhi, Phoenix Eye Bodhi, Vajra Bodhi, and Qilin Eye Bodhi are considered the most prestigious.
