More information about our yoga bangles
All our bangles, called astrological bangles by Yogananda, are created with metal melted by us, by hand, in our workshop in Madrid, one by one, using handcrafted jewelry techniques, paying attention to detail and ensuring the highest quality in the creation process.
When you send us your order, we make that yoga bangle for you because we do not have stock.
Additionally, each yoga bangle comes with its numbered holographic certificate of authenticity, where, after checking the quality of the bangle, its main characteristics are listed.
Each pure metal has balancing faculties according to Swami Sri Yukteswar, which we detail in the following chart:
Metal | Human realm | Celestials | Gunas | Properties |
Gold |
Spirit |
The Sun |
Satva | Toning |
Silver |
Mind |
The Moon |
Rajas | Healing |
Copper |
Body |
Mars |
Tamas | Protecting |
The formula used follows golden proportions and was kept secret for generations of yogis until Swami Sri Yukteswar revealed it to his disciple, Paramahansa Yogananda, between 1910-1914, as later published in chapter 16 of his book titled "Autobiography of a Yogi".
They are a faithful reproduction of the astrological bangles made in India at the beginning of the 20th century, with a new design finish, and they are shipped in two sizes, respecting tradition.
The Original India version is so large that it serves both as a bracelet or bangle (approx. 3.75 in), while the Only bangle version is a bit smaller, more economical, and is for the wrist (approx. 2.75 in diameter).
If you have any additional questions, they might be answered in the FAQ, but we would also be delighted if you send us your inquiry.
