Description
Prayer Bead Necklace with 108 Pearls plus Guru Pearl
Malas are Prayer beads and are used for counting the recited mantras. At the same time, manual shifting of the pearls deepens concentration. Following ancient Vedic tradition, a Japa Mala should have 108 pearls (9 x 12). The number 108 is sacred in Buddhism and Hinduism. For example, there are 108 volumes of the collected teachings of Buddha, many temples have 108 steps, and it is said that each person has 108 lives. And a mantra works after 108 repetitions.

Each material has its own individual appeal. The brown-yellow gemstone Tiger Eye was considered a healing and protective stone early on. His vibrational energy promotes Courage and Stamina and works best on the Solar Plexus Chakra.
A practical and decorative meditation accessory that feels good too!
