We remind you that the sacred tulasi plant is not a tree and it is almost impossible to make absolutely even, identical beads. Therefore, they usually make an imitation, and if it is not expensive and the beads are all the same light color, then it is a 100% imitation... unfortunately
Long and short strings of beads, tied in a ring with a long knot with brushes, in the benches at the temples are by no means an ornament.
The rosaries from the sacred tulas tree, used in Vaishnavism, traditionally have a rough, not a smooth surface. carved surface, however, many brushes have a well-finished surface. The beads are different in diameter, each one is tied with knots, so that even if the rosary breaks, the beads will not be lost. Prayer beads must be kept clean.
Tulasi prayer beads protect their owner from high temperature, mental illnesses, if worn around the neck, the prayer beads will relieve you of sore throat. Mala from tulas protects you from all troubles and dangers, cleanses not only the body, but also the mind, and also promotes devotion and selfless love.
WHAT IS MALA
Mala has been known since the 3rd century and is used both in Buddhism and Hinduism. Mala is used to count mantras, performed rituals and bows. Sorting through the beads, the reader of mantras immerses himself in the realization of the meaning, without being distracted by counting. He chanted the mantra and moved on to the next bead.
NUMBER OF BEADS
Classic mala consists of 108 beads, which is the product of the canonical numbers of Buddhism: 6x3x2x3. There are also shorter brushes of 54, 36, 27, 18 grains. The number of beads always refers to certain provisions of the Teaching.
MATERIAL FOR BEADS AND THREAD
Buddhist brushes are generally made of wood. Sandalwood or bodhi tree are most valued. Juniper brushes are credited with the ability to scare away evil spirits and eliminate harmful influences. Beads made of black coral are used for mystical practices, malas made of pearls and rock crystal bring comfort and eliminate diseases, made of amber - increase life expectancy. Beads are strung on a silk thread, and sometimes - human hair.
MAIN JEWELRY
Mala is often given as a birthday, wedding or holiday gift. Small bracelets are worn as a bracelet, long ones, made of 108 beads, sometimes as a necklace (mostly monks). K mala should be treated with care. If the damaged beads on the brushes cannot be repaired, then the small ones are taken to the temple and left as an offering. Mala serves as an integral attribute of some deities, in particular, Avalokiteshvara, the bodhisattva of compassion. Often he is depicted with a lotus and brushes in his hand, which expresses his desire to help believers overcome 108 passions and achieve enlightenment.
