Buddhist pendants are symbolic and spiritually significant pieces of jewelry that often carry representations of Buddhist teachings, symbols, and deities, not only spiritual symbols but also as expressions of faith, mindfulness, and the wearer's connection to Buddhist teachings. Whether worn for personal meditation or as a stylish accessory, these pendants hold cultural and spiritual significance.
Buddhist Symbols: Buddhist pendants often feature symbols that hold deep significance in Buddhist philosophy. Some of the common symbols include the Lotus Flower, Om symbol, Endless Knot (Shrivatsa), and the Eight Auspicious Symbols.
Mantras and Scriptural Inscriptions: Some Buddhist pendants feature engraved mantras or scriptural passages from Buddhist texts. The most well-known mantra, "Om Mani Padme Hum," is often inscribed on pendants to invoke compassion and blessings.
Amulets and Talismans: Some Buddhist pendants are worn as protective amulets or talismans. They may feature protective deities, such as Green Tara or White Tara, believed to offer guidance and safeguard against negative energies.
