Traditional Bodhi Mala

|

$ 129.00

Many customers have asked for a traditional Tibetan mala design with smaller Bodhi Seed beads, so our artisans put together this mala just for you!
Handmade in Kathmandu, the mala features fine quality Bodhi beads that have been cut on each end, making them flat in the traditional manner.
This unique aesthetic allows for a shorter drop length when wearing the necklace and offers a more adaptable size option for handling during meditation and counting.

Bodhi Seed beads can be used for counting all types of mantras as well as other prayers. These dark-speckled seed beads have special meaning for all seekers of divine wisdom. "Bodhi" in Sanskrit means enlightenment; as an "enlightened" seed, many practitioners use these malas for their essence and inherent teachings within each seed.

Size:

Measures approximately 32-34 inches around. Due to the style of the beads, circumference of mala may vary slightly.

Flat beads are about 12-14mm.

Traditional Bodhi mala

Having worn Malas different kinds for over 40 years I can say that they are all wonderful but this is the first one that has the artisan Touch with the exception of the nylon string Whatever the cord is made of they all stretch A true artist would pre-stretch the string before stringing The beads

Can you wear these on your wrist? You have 2 different types but they both seem the same color. which is the lighter color? The traditional bodhi beads or the dark bodhi beads? Thank you for your time.

Hi Karen! Thanks so much for reaching out to us! Because of the nature of these seed beads, the colors can vary slightly from batch to batch. I would suggest following our main product image, for that is updated when the new malas we receive differ in color. And yes! This mala style can be worn both around the neck and wrist depending on your wrist's measurement. I hope this information is helpful! We appreciate your inquiry and support!

Sean A. 01/07/2020

HI! I love the Mala! I'm new to meditation and I'm curious, when I'm meditating, going from bead to bead, do I separate each bead creating a little space in between? Thank You!

Dharma S. 01/10/2020

Hello Sean, thanks for your inquiry! When it comes to any meditation practice, every method is as unique as the person using these tools! Some prefer having their malas knotted to avoid any movement from bead to bead, when others prefer the natural separation for it helps them stay on track. Whichever technique works best for you and your practice, know that we carry a variety of 108 and wrist mala styles that could work for your custom meditation! I hope this information is helpful! Let us know if you have any additional questions. We appreciate your support of Himalayan artisans!
