Origin & Lore

Sandalwood comes from Santalum trees, chiefly Indian sandalwood, whose heartwood is fragrant for decades after it is cut. It has been used in Hindu, Buddhist and Jain worship for centuries, and in magick it is a wood of protection, peace and spirituality.

Sandalwood paste is still smeared on the brow of worshippers in Hindu temples, a tradition thousands of years old.

Sandalwood is named in Sanskrit texts as chandana, and the paste is used in Hindu puja to anoint deities and devotees.

In Buddhist tradition, sandalwood is a common material for prayer beads and for carving images.
