This simple silk shawl has a beautiful look perfect for a meditation shawl. Both silk and wool are said to have energetically insulating properties which can be a great help for the meditator. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nKnown as bu-ray (insect cloth) in Bhutan and Tibet and as Eri in India, this rugged wild silk fabric is made from the pierced cocoon of the Attacus Ricini moth whose larvae feed on the leaves of the castor oil tree, in the jungles of Assam. Popular in Bhutan and Tibet, eri silk was imported from Assam for centuries and traditionally used for monk's shawls and the famed Tibetan shirt. Because the silk is harvested after the worm has emerged, it is considered a ‘non-violent' silk. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nBuray combines the warmth of wool and the softness of silk. An everlasting fabric, it ages with grace and comfort, developing a sheen and supple drape that molds to the body.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nCHARACTERISTIC FEATURES OF ERI SILK :\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nEri silk is also called peace silk as the moths that generate the silk are not killed before the silk is spun. Eri silk is known for its thermal qualities (warm in winter and cool in summer), softness, at the same time sturdiness.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAhimsa silk is produced after the silk moth has left its cocoon, making it a cruelty-free fabric. \"Ahimsa\" means non-violence in Sanskrit. Ahimsa is an ancient practice of not harming any living creature, from human beings to the simplest of Earth's creatures. It means non-aggression, not only in action but even in thought. Made in this state of non-aggression, this shawl carries a powerful, peaceful vibration, reminding the meditator to seek peace during meditation\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIt is a sustainable, eco-friendly fiber as the raw material used in the production cycle - the silkworms and the castor leaves they eat - comes from nature and can be regrown\/multiplied quickly, and the environment is not disturbed in any way during the process. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nWhy the Silk is special:\u003cbr\u003e\n- 100% Pure Eri Silk\u003cbr\u003e\n- 100% Animal Friendly\u003cbr\u003e\n- 100% Vegan\u003cbr\u003e\n- 100% organically dyed\u003cbr\u003e\n- Natural fabric, suitable for sensitive and hypoallergenic skin.\u003cbr\u003e\n - Eri is a really cool handloom textile.
