What is known about the origin of Ji beads?

There are many legends connected with the origin and significance of Dzi on earth. In connection with the fact that in Tibet any archeological excavations are prohibited, it is not possible to verify the reliability of at least one of them. This makes Ji beads even more mysterious and mystical.

The main version of the appearance of these pebbles is connected with the legend of the demigods of the ancient civilization of Bonpo, which existed approximately 4 thousand years ago. Tibetans believe that the demigods wore beads as ornaments, and when they spoiled, they simply threw it to the ground. This explains the fact that the magic stones of Ji are never found in good condition. According to legend, after the beads fell to the ground, they turned into insects. Dzi-insects lived in the earth like worms, and when they touched a human hand they turned into stones again.

In different parts of Tibet, there are legends about how beads appeared on the earth. In one of them it is said that Dzi is a continuous stream, falling from the slope of Tibet. Once the evil woman looked at this stream, and he immediately stopped. At the same time, stripes characteristic for beads formed on its surface.

There are also other versions of the origin of the stones associated with the fallen meteorite, the fragments of which turned into beads, and with the favor of the Buddha, who sent from heaven the magical Ji for delivering the inhabitants of Tibet from the epidemic. Meanwhile, regardless of which of the legends is true, the value of Ji beads remains unchanged. And here's what the magic stones actually mean, we'll see below.

Types of Dzi beads

Depending on the age, three types of Dzi beads are distinguished:

1. Ancient - the very first beads, which, according to legend, fell from heaven. It is assumed that their age is several thousand years, but it was not possible to establish a more precise time of occurrence on earth. Ancient talismans are not found in open sale. They are stored exclusively in museums and private collectors.
2. Antique - beads Dzi, whose age is not less than 100 years. They are made of agate, and skilful drawings are painted on their surface by the hands of monks. Such beads Dzi are also an antique value and are quite expensive. However, in ancient stones, energy accumulated for years (stagnant) can be enclosed, therefore it is necessary to use them only after purification. To do this, it is recommended to hold the bead not long over fire or leave for several hours in the sun
3. New - beads Dzi, which are still made today by Tibetan masters in ancient technologies. They have clear shapes and images and are especially appreciated in the practice of feng shui. The new beads are considered clean, because they do not have the energy of others. For their production is used agate, mined in the Himalayas. This stone itself has a powerful magnetic force. He relieves fatigue, promotes success in business and helps to realize. So it turns out that it is not by chance that agate is used to make Ji beads.

What do the symbols on Ji beads mean?

Each bead is marked with a certain image, a symbol that indicates what the magnetic energy of Dzi is directed at. Deciphering symbols on a stone, first of all pay attention to the number of circles and ovals. They symbolize the Buddha's eyes, giving the beads the greatest power. In addition to the eyes, on the stone you can see stripes symbolizing the skin of the tiger, squares, other geometric figures, images of plants and animals. All symbols have a definite meaning, they carry a certain force directed at protecting a person from the negativity emanating from ill-wishers, including curses, protecting him from disease, realizing the life potential, and so on.

The types and values of Dzi beads in Tibetan and Chinese practices do not quite match. Tibetans always believed that the bead makes a person happy no matter what image it is applied to. The Chinese, by virtue of the practice of feng shui and modern numerology, added many new meanings to the decoding table of symbols. Today, both the Tibetans and the Chinese jointly interpret images depicted on Dzi, adhering to the fact that each symbol is aimed at solving specific problems and providing certain types of assistance.

In addition to the difference in the applied images, the beads can have different shapes. In the whole world there are round, elongated (oblong, tubular) stones, in the form of a sickle or cube. They can be worn by people of different ages, and they will all equally send their energy.
