 | Red Sandalwood Mala |  |
Mala Beads - Prayer Beads or "rosary" helps to center the mind away from
distracting thoughts during Meditation. As each bead is passed through the
fingers the practitioner recites his or her personal mantra.
The large shaped central bead (3 holed bead) represents Mount Meru,
also known as Mount Kailash. Situated in the Himalayas it is considered by
Tibetans to be "the navel of the world", and is a place of pilgrimage for
Buddhists and Hindus alike.
One should not pass one's fingers over the Meru bead
but turn the mala around and proceed back the other way.
Wholesale welcome.
