ABOUT 4 EYED CONCH DZI BEAD
Conch Shell and Buddha's teaching,the early Buddhists adopted it as a logo of the sovereignty of the Buddha's teachings.
Here the conch symbolizes his fearlessness in proclaiming the truth of the dharma, and his call to awaken and work for the benefit of others.
A right-turning white conch, however, is sacred to both Hindus and Buddhists as one of the eight auspicious symbols.
It represents the sound of the Dharma, the teachings of the Buddha.
Dzi Bead 4 eyes is a bead of 4 Bodhisattva. Bodhisattva is the designation of a person in Buddhism who practices spiritual practices to become a Buddha (enlightened) and to bring benefit to all beings on earth. Bodhisattva's consciously remain in this world and do not go into nirvana to help people and other living beings get out of Samara — an endless cycle of rebirths.
The four-eyed bead Dzi is endowed with the qualities of four Bodhisattvas:
Maitreya - Compassion and Wisdom
Avalokiteshvara - compassion, protector from danger, supreme love
Manjushri - the wisdom and power of the Buddha, memory and intelligence
Mahasthamaprapta - Wisdom and Awareness
ABOUT DZI BEAD
Dzi bead (Tib. གཟི།; pronounced "zee"; alternative spelling: gzi) is a type of stone bead of uncertain origin worn as part of a necklace and sometimes as a bracelet. In several Asian cultures, including that of Tibet, the bead is considered to provide positive spiritual benefit.
Dzi beads are made from agate, and may have decorative symbols composed of circles, ovals, squares, waves or zig zags, stripes, lines, diamonds, dots, and various other archetypal and symbolic patterns. Colors mainly range from brown to black, with the pattern usually in ivory white. Dzi beads can appear in different colours, shapes, and sizes; the surface is usually smooth and waxy, presumably resulting from wear over a long period of time.
In Tibetan culture these beads are generally prized as protective amulets,these beads are believed to attract local protectors, dharmapalas or deities or maybe beneficial ghosts, ancestors or even bodhisattvas. Because of this, dzi beads are always treated with respect.
The most highly prized dzi beads are those of ancient age, made of natural agate. The original source of these beads is a mystery. While the traditional, ancient-style beads are greatly preferred, new modern-made dzi are gaining popularity among Tibetans.
