This Kartika, measuring 19.5 cm in height and 12.5 cm in breadth and weighing 0.31 kg, is both useful and aesthetically pleasing. Its outstanding design, which includes bright jewels and a gently curved blade, makes it a sought-after centerpiece for Buddhist altars or a special spiritual treasure. Incorporate this handcrafted Kartika into your rituals or display it to boost the spiritual energy in your environment.

Introduction To The Kartika Knife :

While the Kartika is used in many Buddhist rituals, generally in connection with the kapala (skullcap), it is especially essential in the Tibetan practice of Chöd, a ritual involving self-sacrifice in which the practitioner visualizes their own body as an offering at a tantric feast. The Kartika is also famous for its use in the Tibetan sky burial ritual, in which the bodies of the dead are cut into small pieces and left on top of special gats or burial platforms for the vultures to consume. Unexpectedly, the Kartika is also used in Feng Shui practice.
