Faceted Himalayan Crystal Bracelet Hand Mala

Hand malas are also prayer beads, which are used for keeping count while reciting, chanting, or mentally repeating a mantra. Mantra means “sacred sound.” They are used for different purposes linked to working with mind. In addition to serving a counting function, malas facilitate one-pointed concentration and serve as a tool for connecting, body, speech and mind during one’s meditation practice. Hand malas contain 21 or 27 beads and are used for prostrations, a physical meditation that is used to transcend ego and overcome pride. Himalayan Crystal is meditative and assists in gaining an awareness of one’s spiritual destiny. It also serves as an aid for cultivating self-acceptance and trusting one’s intuition.
