Indian wooden malas

Malas come from India, where for thousands of years they have been used for japa — repeating mantras and prayers. Moving from bead to bead keeps the attention steady and counts the repetitions without counting in your head. Wood is the warmest, most alive material for a mala: pleasant to touch, light, and with every year it gains a noble patina from the hands. This mala is made by Indian craftsmen and finished with a traditional tassel.

Why choose this mala:

natural wood, polished by hand;
light, warm beads that are pleasant to count;
a traditional Indian tassel on the guru bead;
suitable both for practice and to wear as an accessory.

How to use

Hold the mala in your right hand and move one bead for each mantra or breath, starting next to the tassel; at the tassel turn the mala around without crossing it. It can also be worn on the neck or wrist, placed on an altar or hung on a car mirror. Wood dislikes water: wipe the beads with a dry cloth and keep them in a pouch.
