What is a Mala?

A mala is originally a Hindu and Buddhist tool for prayer and meditation. It is used to count mantras during meditation.

A mantra is a collection of words, often in Sanskrit, that is repeated several times—traditionally 108 times.

By repeating, you focus on the meaning and vibration of the words, possibly combined with the accompanying visualization.

By engaging in a meditation practice like this, your thoughts rest and your body relaxes.

Nowadays, a mala is also worn as a fashion accessory.

Why 108? Malas have 108 beads because this number has great scientific significance in Hindu and Buddhist traditions.

The circumference of the sun multiplied by 108 is the distance between the sun and the Earth and the same is true for the Moon and the Earth.

In addition, there are 108 nadis or energy channels in the body. There are 54 Sanskrit letters, both masculine and feminine, for a total of 108.

There are 108 Puranas and 108 Upanishads.

The list goes on and on!! This same sacred number is therefore used in malas.

It is advisable to store the Mala in a Mala bag, for protection against disturbing influences.
