The Holiday Season is in full swing, and from Miami to Milan to Mumbai that can only mean one thing: it’s time to shop! For devotees of Krishna, the Holidays provide a wonderful opportunity to give Krishna conscious gifts to co-workers, friends, and family.

Of course, sharing your faith along with spreading good cheer can be like walking through a minefield; come on too strong, and your pushiness may land you up on Santa’s naughty list. Fortunately, our devotional gift-giving experts at ISKCON News have selected six spiritual stocking stuffers sure to please even the biggest Scrooge in your life. So, before you take that gift-wrapped Fifth Canto of Srimad Bhagavatam to the office Christmas party, click through our helpful list … and leave the Santa Claus stuff to us.

 

1. “Jingle Smells”… For those who’s noses have had enough of  imitation peppermint, pinecone, gingerbread, and mistletoe this Christmas, there is hope; the vast collection of incense available on Krishna.com will be a breath of fresh air.  Made from pure ingredients, and beautifully packaged, this incense is perfect for turning any place into a meditative space.  Whether you go with traditional choices like sandalwood or Nag Champa, or take your cue from the Three Wise Men and go with the Frankincense and Myrrh, these scents will gently transport their owners to another realm.  Buy a bunch of different packs and create your own sampler, or combine with a smoking pillar incense burner or hand-painted Rajasthani incense holder for a more substantial gift.
