Tibetan Buddhist Mala beads with black tassel - handmade in Asia

What are mala beads? Mala beads are a tool for those around the world who practice meditation, follow religion, or seek inner calm. They are used by monks in various parts of Asia to enable focus on the sound and meaning of a mantra without the distraction of counting the number of repetitions.

• One hundred and eight natural Black Lava beads were hand knotted together on a silken cord along with Tibetan plated silver accents to make the Mala.

• Knotting ensures this quality mala is extra strong and durable for many years of use.

• In Tibetan Buddhism 108 beads are used- symbolizing Mankind's Mortal Desires.

Natural volcanic lava rock is a stone known for its qualities of strength, courage and clarity. Lava is also believed to provide physical and mental power when facing difficult situations, hardships or discomfort.

It can be used as a rosary, Tibetan / Buddhist prayer beads, meditation necklace, be worn by girls, women, boys, or men. It is great for mantra chanting, yoga and zen meditation practices.

Start at the tassel to use this helpful meditation accessory. Hold a bead between your middle finger and thumb. Recite, chant, or mentally repeat a mantra, moving to the next bead after each repetition. After 108 repetitions you will reach the tassel from the other side.

The Natural air pockets in lava rock make this mala a wearable aromatherapy diffuser. Rub a small drop of your favorite essential oil into the air pockets of the lava beads, and they will release scent over time as you use your mala.

The Mala looks great as a necklace. It also has a nice real weighted feel to it when wrapped loosely around your wrist .

We hope that these beads bring you as much fulfilment as they do for us. Get a set now and begin your journey to a tranquil and more serene you.
