Why Fair Trade Wholesale Yoga and Meditation Products from Ganesh Himal?

Why Fair Trade Wholesale Yoga and Meditation Products from Ganesh Himal?

Ganesh Himal has worked diligently to offer high quality Fair Trade wholesale yoga and meditation products including: Prayer flags, Meditation pillows, Statues, Prayer wheels, Incense, and Yoga bags.


Traditionally, Dharma items are used in Tibetan Buddhist rituals and for decorating and blessing temples, monasteries, and homes. The incense, statues & prayer wheels have been adopted in the West for use in ritual, meditation and healing. Prayer flags, blockprinted with Tibetan prayers of compassion, are hung outside to benefit all sentient beings.


The Drepung Loseling monks are a group of refugees who started a small business venture in Kathmandu to help sustain their monastery in exile in Southern India. With a long standing commitment to supporting Tibetan refugees, Ganesh Himal partnered with this group in the 1990s to develop a variety of products like zafu pillows. The monks work directly with Ganesh Himal to set the prices. All income from their products goes to their monastery and supports their community in exile.
