Om Wooden Box Handmade Carved Chest Indian Balinese Trinket Mango

“The syllable OM, which is the imperishable Brahman, is the universe. Whatsoever has existed, whatsoever exists, and whatsoever shall exist hereafter, is OM. And whatsoever transcends past, present, and future, that also is OM.”

Everything that surrounds us has an aspect of the divine, just as we do ourselves. The chanting of the sound Om reminds us of those connections to the divine and to each other. But Om also represents the states of human consciousness.

The first state of consciousness, known as Vaishvanara, is waking state which is focused outward to material objects. The second state of consciousness, Taijasa, is dreaming sleep or the mental nature which is focused inward to only the thoughts in the mind. The third state of consciousness, Prajna, is dreamless sleep or deep meditation.

The Fourth state of consciousness, known as Turiya, is pure unitary consciousness, wherein awareness of the world and of multiplicity is completely obliterated. It is ineffable peace. It is the supreme good. It is One without a second. It is the Self. These four states of consciousness are part of the makeup of human nature. They exist in all of us at all times.
Each state represents peace and self awareness.

This beautiful handmade box is hand carved and made from Mango Tree Wood which is eco-friendly for the following reasons:

– Responsible management of mango plantations adds to the sustainability of mango wood. Cut-down trees are immediately replaced, and only old, fruitless trees are harvested for wood.

– The use of mango wood prevents teak and other endangered woods from being harvested from the wild.

– Manufacturing of wood products provides additional revenue for mango farmers, supporting the local community.

– Overall deforestation is reduced by using domestic mango wood.

– Mango wood is relatively hard and dense and therefore very durable, requiring little to no maintenance.

– Using the mango wood from cut-down trees reduces carbon emissions, because the wood is not left to rot (rotting wood produces carbon dioxide).

It is very special and would make a lovely gift for a loved one, as it’s perfect for storing personal, special items. The trinket box is especially ideal for pieces of jewelry as there is space to store your favourite pieces. It definitely makes a beautiful addition to one’s home decoration, especially if you appreciate handmade woodwork. Much effort and artistic energy has been put into the making of this piece and its positive energies will surely be passed on to the new owner.

The measurements are as follows:
10.5cm long (4.1 inches)
10cm wide (3.9 inches)
6cm high (2.4 inches)

It would make a very unique addition to your home decor 🙂
