Nowadays, every single kind of product or service can be found in online stores. This includes the idols of our favorite gods too. Whether it’s Ganesh idols for your car, Buddha idols for your home or Durga idols for your office , you can find them all from the comfort of your own home. However, like with any product on the World Wide Web (WWW), there are a lot of examples that exhibit poor quality in terms of materials used, authenticity & packaging. Therefore, it’s important for e-commerce users to be aware of sites they can trust and the ones they can’t. Remember, an aware customer, is a smart customer. Which is why I’ve attached a checklist down below for the next time you purchase god idols online! Material Quality – Now of course you can’t tell what material the product has been made of just by looking at an image. But you should expect the website to state the materials being used right?  Any good website will have the materials used listed out. There ...

Feng Shui has long been associated to wealth, prosperity and success. This association has got a lot of people to think maybe Feng Shui items for home  are just an elaborate marketing plot. But that isn’t the case. I admit some brands use Feng Shui to describe almost any product. However, Feng Shui products are designed and styled in order to serve a purpose. Not just for show. Feng Shui items at home act as conductor of positive energy and a clean flow of the same. These products only actually work if placed according to the guidelines of the product itself. For example, the way one treats a Feng Shui tortoise is different from that of a Feng Shui dragon. Both have been made for different purposes and only really work if made using the correct materials and placed in an appropriate location.  That’s why it’s important to know the details of the product you’ve purchased for Feng Shui. Otherwise, you just end up buying and placing regular home décor. Do note that i...

God idols like those of Ganesh ( www.mypoojabox.in/collections/ganesh-idol ), have almost always been made by local artists instead of big manufacturers. These idols or sculptors of god have always been sold in local markets. This practice has led to a lot of vendors creating these idols of god only to later realize that they aren’t they only ones who had this plan. This leads to stiff competition and puts pressure on these local artists to produce, market and sell their work. This means a lot of artists with less capacity for the same are left alone to fight their own fight. Luckily, we already have brands migrating to e-commerce in the religious side of the market. Brands like My Pooja Box have created a platform for shopping god idols online that have been sourced from these local artisans who had no access to the market before. Not only does this enable the small artisans to maintain a source of income, but also brings traditional arts and crafts to a much larger market. Th...

Pink Himalayan Salt Rock Lamps are made using pink salt crystals mined solely from the Himalayas. The most popular location in the Himalayas for mining these salts is in Kewra, Pakistan.  Converting these salt crystals into a lamp involves hollowing out large chunks of these crystals and placing a bulb inside that emits both light and heat. These ‘Pink’ Himalayan Salt Lamps do vary in colors ranging from light pink to an intense orange. This is dependent on the mineral concentration of the crystals. Do note that white salt crystals are also available but are extremely rare and as a result of the rarity, they are quite expensive as well. Read more...
