Bhikamali Jadi (Dikamali) – Nature’s Sacred Healing Resin
Introduction to Bhikamali Jadi
Bhikamali Jadi, often called Dikamali and scientifically known as Brilliant Gardenia resin, is a rare and powerful Ayurvedic ingredient. This natural gum resin is extracted from the Gardenia gummifera tree, found in the Himalayan foothills. Prized for its medicinal, aromatic, and spiritual properties, Bhikamali has been used for centuries in Ayurveda, incense-making, and traditional healing rituals.
At Sri Herbal, we bring you 100% pure, hand-collected Bhikamali resin, ensuring authenticity and potency for holistic wellness.
The Ancient Origins of Bhikamali (Dikamali)
Bhikamali Jadi has deep roots in Indian and Nepalese traditional medicine. Known as "Dikamali" in Sanskrit, it was historically used by sages and healers for:
Purifying the air (as incense)
Relieving joint pain & inflammation
Enhancing meditation & spiritual practices
The resin oozes naturally from the Gardenia gummifera tree bark, primarily found in Himalayan forests. Its rich, woody fragrance makes it a prized ingredient in natural perfumes and Ayurvedic remedies.
How Bhikamali Resin is Made?
Bhikamali Jadi is not manufactured—it’s harvested sustainably from nature. Here’s how it’s collected:
Natural Extraction – The resin seeps out from cracks in the tree bark.
Hand-Collection – Local harvesters carefully gather the hardened resin drops.
Sun-Drying – The raw resin is dried naturally to preserve its potency.
Purification – Impurities like bark pieces are removed manually.
Unlike artificial resins, Sri Herbal’s Bhikamali Jadi is 100% pure, unprocessed, and chemical-free.
