What is a Mala?

A mala is a string of 108 beads that are used in meditation. The number 108 represents the 108 earthly temptations a human must overcome during his or her lifetime. The word “mala” comes from the Sanskrit meaning “garland.”

Mala beads are used in conjunction with mantras to meditate, chant and focus on spiritual enlightenment. Most people use malas during their daily practice, while some wear them as accessories instead of using them for prayer and reflection purposes. We carry an assortment of beautiful malas in all shapes, sizes and colors that can be worn at any time—whether you’re at home or out and about!

How We Obtain Our Beads

Why do we go to India? To get our beads from a guy named Vinod.

To be honest, he has a sweat shop, but he is a very good friend and we have known him for over 10 years. We have traveled to India many times together and he is always looking out for us. He’s so helpful because he knows how important this business is to us!

Mala beads have been a significant part of Buddhism for thousands of years. For Buddhists, the mala represents their relationship with the Buddha and the way that they practice. It’s important to get genuine malas.
