Mala necklace Rudraksha 108 beads 6mm

The beaded string is mainly used to count mantras that are recited. So it actually has the same function as a rosary (Catholic rosary). Beads made from (semi) precious stones, pearls, bodhi seeds or wood are suitable for many purposes, for counting all kinds of mantras or other prayers, bows, rounds and the like. The cord is the same for all malas, and should consist of nine threads that symbolize the Buddha Vajradhara and the eight bodhisattvas. The large bead at the end stands for the wisdom that realizes the complete emptiness and the cylindrical bead above it is the emptiness itself. Together they symbolize that all opponents are defeated.

The mala with 108 beads is used for reciting or singing mantras. The number 108 is the ideal number for all purposes. It is important that our thoughts are pure while reciting or singing the mantra. Mantra is the practical use of secret powers that help us move forward. Mantra is a collection of letters from the alphabet. The effect is achieved through the repetition of the mantra; this becomes deeper the longer you recite. Of essential importance is the sound that is produced when reciting. This sound produces and creates a unique spiritual impression in the person who recites. It is said that a mantra is like a human; one has to go through different stages before the actual effect is achieved: 'purification of mental impressions'. There are several mantras that have their potential power within themselves; these mantras may only be transferred from Master to initiate. These are the so-called 'Siddha Mantras'.

Rudraksha seeds
Rudraksha means "Tears of Rudra (Lord Shiva)"; they are the most holy products with mystical powers. For thousands of years, people have used Rudraksha for spiritual, material, and medicinal purposes. It is said that the person who wears Rudraksha is inviolable and protected from all negative influences. The natural electromagnetic energy of the holy Rudraksha beads increases the concentration and mental qualities. The Ayurvedic writings describe that Rudraksha has a positive influence on people's health. The effects of performed rituals and mantra recitation are ten times more powerful with the use of Rudraksha. A beautiful booklet is available in English (see book department art.no. B115 - € 4.90) with the title Rudraksha; it extensively describes the spiritual significance of this magically dried fruit of the Rudraksha tree.
