Defining Akara

Mines of Jewels

AKARA, meaning "mine of jewels" in Pali, draws its name from one of the earliest and most sacred languages in which the Buddha’s teachings were first recorded. Pali, revered for its role in preserving the Dharma, serves as a bridge to the timeless wisdom of the Buddha. Just as a mine is a source of precious jewels, AKARA symbolizes a treasure trove of spiritual richness, offering items imbued with the blessings of this ancient tradition.

Since its founding in 2006, the AKARA Collection has remained committed to its original vision of offering authentic products that benefit all beings.

Holistic Approach To Dharma Practise

Buddhist practice goes beyond meditation; it is deeply intertwined with prayer, visualization, recitation, and ritual. Each of these aspects is supported by physical tools such as malas, thangkas, statues, incense, and offerings.

In Accordance To Tradition and Scripture

The AKARA Collection also offers lifestyle items that embody the beauty and blessings of the land of the Buddha. Our mission is to support both Buddhist practitioners and spiritual seekers, nourishing the spirit and inspiring the mind.
