SANDALWOOD 108 BEADS MALA WITH BLACK ONYX

Keeping things simple.

We took our basic sandalwood mala and added Root Chakra - Black Onyx beads and added premium knots and tassel. This mala design is absolutely stunning. We kept Onyx to 7 beads to represent 7 energy points in our body.

The sandalwood is fragrant and brings with it calming and meditative energy. The more you wear it, the more fragrant it becomes. Store in a ziplock bag to preserve the aroma.

Individually hand knotted and hand made with love.

Mala is made in traditional way with knots between the beads. Total beads 108+1

SIZE OF SANDALWOOD BEADS : 8 MM(APPROX)

LENGTH OF MALA : 90 CM (APPROX)

Buddhists and Hindus both use prayer beads. In Hinduism they are more commonly known as Japa, and in Buddhism they are more commonly known as Mala. There are usually 108 beads and a top bead known as the Guru Bead or Sumeru. Smaller numbers of beads can also be used and are usually known as Wrist Mala or Power Bead Bracelets because they are worn around the wrist, which is useful if you are travelling.

Mala or Japa beads aid concentration when meditating. The Beads are usually held and moved between the thumb and third finger until the mantras have been completed. When you reach the Guru Bead or Sumeru, you turn the beads around and go back the other way, rather than crossing over the top bead. The index finger never touches the beads because it represents Ego, which is an impediment to self-realization.

Why 108 beads? There are many reasons – 108 is a sacred number to the Eastern religions and traditions.
