The Tree of Shiva. The Guardian of Sacred Rituals.
Bael, also known as Bilva or Bel Patra, is a sacred tree in Indian scriptures and temples — especially associated with Lord Shiva. Offering its trifoliate leaves is part of deep Vedic rituals for cleansing karmic energy, healing the aura, and protecting your space from negativity.
