Large dark Bodhi seed mala prayer chain (⌀ 13 mm)

Large-format Tibetan prayer chain with 108 carefully selected, large and polished dark Bodhi seeds. The mala is made with four yellow cords and is carefully handcrafted for us in a traditional workshop in Nepal.

Bodhi seeds come from the Bodhi tree, which has a central spiritual meaning in Buddhism. The word "Bodhi" comes from Sanskrit and means awakening or enlightenment. It was under a bodhi tree that Siddhartha Gautama attained enlightenment and became the Buddha. Since then, the bodhi tree has been a sacred symbol of wisdom, knowledge and spiritual awakening. Malas made from Bodhi seeds are therefore often used for meditation and mantra practice.

The 108 beads correspond to the traditional number of mantra repetitions in Buddhist practice and support calm, concentrated meditation.

We supply the mala in an elegant silk brocade bag, which we select individually to match the color.
