A Gau (also spelled Ghau or Gao) is a Tibetan Buddhist amulet container or prayer box, usually made of metal and worn as jewelry. As a small container used to hold and carry powerful amuletic objects, the Gau is culturally equivalent to Latin American package amulets, African-American conjure bags or mojo hands, South American charm vials, and American wish boxes. The Ghau opens to a concealed inner space, and is traditionally used by Tibetan Buddhists to hold a picture of their favorite deity or Lama, a folded up scroll of sacred mantras, special herbs or sacred relics. The Ghau is used as an amulet to help the wearer to ward off negative energy and attract blessings. A Ghau are also used as a portable shrine and are worn on a cord around the neck and hung close to the heart. Turquoise is thought to possess significant healing properties and is often counted as a master healing stone. It is a peace and harmonizing stone that helps to decrease nervousness, tension and stress. It is believed to strengthen ones courage and personal power, fostering empathy, sensitivity and positive thinking. Many people believe that turquoise is a stone of friendship and will enhance love, loyalty and communication. Turquoise is perhaps the oldest stone in man's history, the talisman of kings, shamans, and warriors.
