Black Ambergris Dragon Beads

Deep Fragrance · Rooted Strength · Echoes of Shaolin Discipline
  • Contains rare ambergris (3–4%) and over 20 traditional Chinese herbs
  • Features a layered, awakening scent that transforms with time
  • Inspired by Shaolin monastic discipline and inner cultivation

 

Crafted in the tradition of He Xiang (compound incense), the Black Ambergris Dragon Beads embody the essence of Shaolin’s hidden strength — a fragrance worn not for show, but for discipline, clarity, and presence.
This powerful formula blends three of the Four Great Incenses of China:
  • Agarwood (沉香): grounding the mind
  • Sandalwood (檀香): purifying the heart
  • Ambergris (龙涎香): awakening the spirit
Ambergris, a rare secretion from sperm whales, forms over decades deep in the ocean, symbolizing patience, depth, and the hidden power within. Together with borneol, bingpian (natural camphor), and over 20 traditional herbs including polygala, rehmannia, clove, and curculigo, this blend honors centuries-old Shaolin wisdom.
According to records in the Shaolin Herbal Scrolls, monks once used deep-scented incense beads to steady breath and qi before intense training or meditation. These black beads mirror that ancient practice — cold to the touch, warm in scent, with enduring transformation.

Fragrance Profile

  • Top Notes: Piercing clarity from borneol and bingpian
  • Mid Notes: Sweetness with no florals — like inner blossoms blooming
  • Base Notes: Rich, aged sandalwood with resinous undertones
The longer it's worn or warmed, the deeper it becomes. A cool-condensation incense, the scent emerges from within and stays close to the body, maturing uniquely with each user.
To restore intensity after long use, place in a sealed container for a few days — the fragrance will revive naturally.

Is this store officially operated by Shaolin Temple?

Yes, this platform is the official
direct-operated global e-commerce store of China's Songshan Shaolin
Temple. It is under the administration of Dengfeng Shaolin Kung Fu
Training Co., Ltd. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shaolin Temple) and
fully operated by the "Shaolin Digital Platform" (shaolingames.com). All
products are supervised by Shaolin Temple, integrating 1,530 years of
heritage in Chan, Kung Fu, Medicine, and Arts. Our mission is to spread a
holistic body, mind, and spirit healthy lifestyle to the world.

What is the core philosophy behind Shaolin products?

Our fundamental philosophy is to promote harmony in body, mind, and spirit:

  • Body: Strengthen the physique through Kung Fu equipment, Shaolin Kung Fu practices, and health foods
  • Mind: Cultivate mindful focus with Chan practice tools, tea sets, incense arts, and Chan strategy board games
  • Spirit: Inspire wisdom through Buddhist art aesthetics, Chan philosophy, and Shaolin classical texts

All
products integrate ancient wisdom with modern life scenarios (e.g.,
office Chan practice, family health management), helping you transform
Chan philosophy into daily practice.

How is Shaolin merchandise different from other cultural brands?

Our uniqueness lies in:

  1. Origin and
    Heritage: Our formulations/craftsmanship originate from temple archives
    and the ancient methods passed down by Shaolin monks (e.g.,
    Chan-medicine ancient formulas, Shaolin Kung Fu training systems).
  2. Modern
    Transformation: Products are co-created by the monastic community and
    designers (e.g., Chan incense sets, meditation cushions). Some items are
    entirely handcrafted by Shaolin monks (e.g., He Xiang Zhu beads, Chan
    tea, porcelain, etc.).
  3. Focus on Authentic Cultivation: We
    prohibit any excessive mystical packaging promoting "supernatural
    powers." Instead, we encourage a return to the essence of practice by
    enhancing product quality and spreading the authentic Shaolin methods of
    Chan and Kung Fu cultivation. Our aim is to help everyone attain
    mindful enlightenment, insight into their true nature, attain great
    wisdom, and achieve ultimate freedom.
