Drokmo Eternal Knot Necklace

$30.00

The Pata, or the Endless Knot ( དཔལ་བེའུ།), is one of the Eight Auspicious Symbols in Tibetan Buddhism. It represents the interconnectedness of all things, the cycle of existence (samsara), and the union of wisdom and compassion.

Key Meanings:

  1. Interconnectedness: The knot's intricate pattern, with no beginning or end, symbolizes how all phenomena are intertwined in an infinite cycle of cause and effect. This reflects the Buddhist belief in interdependence and the idea that everything is connected.

  2. The Union of Wisdom and Compassion: In Tibetan Buddhism, enlightenment is achieved through the balance of wisdom (the understanding of emptiness) and compassion (the desire to help all beings). The Endless Knot signifies the inseparability of these two qualities, essential for achieving enlightenment.

  3. Eternal Continuity: The unbroken lines of the knot symbolize the continuity of life, time, and existence, as well as the Buddha's infinite wisdom.

  4. Harmony: The pattern of the knot also represents harmony and the harmonious interplay of forces in the universe, pointing to the equilibrium necessary in both worldly and spiritual paths.

The Endless Knot is commonly used in Tibetan art and ritual objects as a symbol of these profound teachings and is often given as a blessing, representing good fortune and longevity.

Material: 18k gold plated over silver.
Length: 16.4 inches max

Care:

  1. Avoid exposure to any kind of moisture.

  2. Between wearing, store in a pouch or in the box provided separate from other jewelry.

  3. Be gentle if cleaning is required. Do not rub.
