The premise.

We made one tee. You decide what it's worth. Whatever you pay is printed on your tee, forever.

There's an old idea woven through Indian tradition: that some things have no fixed price. A teaching, a blessing, a gift between equals — the giver decides what to offer, based on what they have and what they feel it's worth.

We're applying that to a tee. 1,008 editions. Five tiers. Within each tier, you pick your number. Your number gets printed on your tee, in Devanagari, on the front. Your edition number is sealed on the sleeve.

When all 1,008 are claimed, the drop is closed. No restock. No re-issue. Ever.

Why 1,008.

108 is not arbitrary. It is the number of beads on a mala. The number of names of Vishnu, of Shiva, of Lalita Devi. The number of Upanishads. The distance between the sun and the earth, measured in solar diameters. The number you whisper, count, and bow to, again and again, until the count becomes the practice itself.

1,008 is its sacred multiple — used in the most refined forms of recitation, where 108 is repeated nine times, plus eight to seal the count. It is what you offer when 108 is not enough.

We made 1,008 tees. Not 1,000. Not 999. Not a marketing round number. A number that means something to anyone who has ever held a mala in their hand.

Things people ask.

Each tee is custom-printed with your specific amount the moment you order. We can't resell a tee that says "I PAID ₹3,847" to anyone else. So every order is prepaid — UPI, cards, or net banking. No exceptions.

No. Each tee is made for you, with your number, your edition. Manufacturing defects are replaced free. Anything else, no.

That's the whole point. The tees are identical. The numbers on them are not. Whether you flex by paying the floor or by paying the ceiling — both are valid. Both are interesting.

Production batches go out every 7 days from the time the drop opens. You'll get tracking the moment yours ships. Shipping within India only for this drop.

No. When the 1,008th edition is claimed, the drop is sealed and goes off the site. The 1008 Sangha (the community of all 1,008 buyers) becomes a permanent thing. Future ASTR drops may be accessible to Sangha first — but not this one. It only happens once.
