Several symbols associated with the egg and the color turquoise hold significance for Buddhists and Tibetans. In Buddhism, the egg symbolizes the rejuvenating force in nature, with the golden egg representing spiritual awakening.
Turquoise, often referred to as the "Sky Stone," is considered by Tibetans to have originated from the heavens, and as such, they hold it in high regard for its spiritual significance. For many Tibetans, turquoise serves as a symbol of love and a protective charm, safeguarding both the giver and the recipient.
Tibetan Buddhist prayer boxes, small amulet containers, allow individuals to place their personalized prayer wishes inside.
Meanwhile, the Buddhist Treasure Box stands as a symbol of success and enduring power, believed to attract good fortune and positive energies.
