These Mini Guru Rinpoche tsa tsa molds are beautifully detailed and produce small coin sized tsa tsas. The tsa tsa mold is created with an magnificent depiction of Guru Padmasambhava. Om Ah Hung is imprinted to one side of Guru Rinpoche, a stupa is on the other side, and Guru Rinpoche's mantra is imprinted around the perimeter of the tsa tsa. It is recommended to use clay for making tsa tsas with metal molds. Once blessed, tsa tsa are sacred images and should be treated as such.

Guru Padmasambhava is a central figure in Tibetan Buddhism and is also known as Padmasambhava, Guru Rinpoche, or the Lotus-Born. He is considered a historical figure and was born in what is now modern-day India in the 8th century CE.

According to the Vajrayana tradition , Guru Rinpoche was a master of tantra and was instrumental in introducing Buddhism to Tibet. He is credited with subduing local deities, demons, and negative forces in Tibet and is believed to have hidden spiritual treasures or "terma" for future generations to discover.

Padmasambhava is often depicted with a fierce, semi-wrathful expression, holding a vajra and skull cup. Revered by the Nyingma school of Tibetan Buddhism as Guru Rinpoche, the "Second Buddha," he is believed to have attained the highest level of spiritual realization as a Vajrayana master.

His teachings emphasize the importance of compassion, wisdom, and skillful means in achieving enlightenment. Padmasambhava's influence on Tibetan Buddhism is immense and his legacy is still celebrated today in numerous festivals and ceremonies.

Making tsa tsas is considered a meritorious action. Individuals, historically, made pilgrimages to make many tsa tsas in auspicious places.

Instructions:
1. Lightly oil the mold to allow for the tsa tsa to release from the mold. It is important no excess oil collects in recesses in the mold or the tsa tsa will not be well defined.
2. Knead the clay to soften and shape before filling the mold.
3. Press the clay into the mold. There are a couple of options to make it easier to get the tsa tsa to release:
a. Use extra clay to make a base extending approximately 1/2 inches beyond the bottom of the mold to give you something to grab to release the tsa tsa;
b. Add a little handle made of clay to the back of the tsa tsa to give you something to grab to release the tsa tsa or;
c. Use extra clay to allow you to press the tsa tsa down onto a board and this will allow you to lift the mold while leaving the tsa tsa behind. This method requires the trimming of the tsa tsa.
4. To bless the tsa tsa, either make a small hole in the bottom/back and fill with blessed rice or mantra roll and cover the hole OR write or stamp a mantra on the bottom/ back.
5. Carefully remove the tsa tsa from the mold.
6. Dry the tsa tsa completely.
7. Paint or varnish the tsa tsa.

There are lots of videos available online for more detail regarding making tsa tsas.

These are hand made and have some slight variations between items. Molds have some cosmetic finish defects that will not impact the imprint of the tsa tsa.

Love it!
I absolutely love this moisturizer! I originally got a sample of it through Birchbox and fell in love. It is the first facial moisturizer I've used that doesn't cause face demons and it actually got rid of my dry flaky bits around mouth and nose area after just a few uses. It smells delightful and fresh, it's very lightweight, and it's not at all greasy or oily feeling. I wanted to purchase it immediately after sampling but Birchbox was selling this same size bottle for $35 and I couldn't justify that so when Amazon had it listed for $15 at the time, I snatched it up! I will definitely be repurchasing this product again and again and again!

great product, horrid shipping packaging
Very moisturizing yet very light. I love the smell of cucumber, too. And the best feature is that it's organic, so you can safely use it on a daily basis. While I love the product, I do not like the way they ship it. When I received my COOLA, the box was smashed. But I did not imagine that it damaged the tube as well. You can kind of see them on the photo, but it created sharp-edged creases, from where it often starts leaking. I did not want to take a chance, so I contacted the seller, and they sent me a replacement. But the replacement box was also smashed, although the tube itself was not damaged this time. If you want to buy products as gifts, you can never buy them from this seller. COOLA itself is fantastic, so I wanted to give a 5 star, but the way they carelessly ship is unacceptable, which would have resulted in 2 stars, but they promptly replaced it, so I'd give 3.5, but for lack of 0.5 increment, I gave it 4 stars.

LOVES LOVES LOVES
This is the absolute best sunscreen on the market for your face. Or at least that I've ever tried. Being in my 20's I'm getting pretty obsessed with preventative care, and face sunscreen every day is a big priority. I actually received a sample size in my Birch Box Monthly Subscription and I fell in love with it. So happy I found a cheaper once on Amazon because it usually is about $35! The smell is NOTHING like a sunscreen, it smells like fresh cucumber, and the texture is not thick. I put it on under my makeup and it does not feel the slightest bit heavy. Needless to say, unless one day I have an allergic reaction to it, I will be using this sunscreen until I die.

Not Natural
I loved the application of this product, very smooth, no smell, no white patches and, supposedly, all natural. Then I looked at the inactive ingredients! EWG rates this product #3 for problematic ingredients. The most problematic is the OCTINOXATE, which they rate #6! I'm torn. I have not found another sunscreen with as good an application as this one but I don't want to put harmful things on my skin. I have decided to return it. Sigh! UPDATE: I just discovered that EWG rates highly the Coola PLANT BASED sunscreen (not this one). The reviews for that product, however, suggest it leaves a white paste, like most other sunscreens. I'm going Dr. Mercola's face stick. It got good reviews here.

Excellent sunscreen for daily sun protection...
This is a great sunscreen for the "light" days in the sun. I layer my skincare (serums, creams, then sunscreen) before I apply my makeup. Sunscreen is always the last step before I apply my makeup. Other brands have been known to "bead up" under my makeup through out the day, or have a white cast to them. This does not do that. It doesn't leave a white cast, or residue of any kind on my skin. It is lightweight to the point of being weightless right after application. It is incredibly moisturizing on my dry skin as well, which I LOVE! Love the ingredients too for everyday use! The only downside to this sunscreen is it isn't strong enough to protect my skin on days I am in the sun a lot and cannot reapply every hour, or so. I noticed a couple of stubborn brown spots pop up after a couple hours in direct sunlight. I didn't burn, but I did get a tan on my face I was hoping to avoid. All in all, This is my favorite sunscreen I use when I am running to-and-fro, but not the sunscreen I will use at the ball field, or a day at the beach.
