Making and Using Your Own Buddhist Malas
This kit contains: elastic string, 3 head beads, 3 crown beads, 6 separator beads, 27 carnelian beads, 27 sandalwood beads, and 27 tiger's eye beads.
'Dharma Beads' looks beyond just the hip aspect of wearing Buddhist malas and presents a thoughtful presentation of authentic Tibetan mala traditions and customs. Whatever your spiritual tradition, you can use malas to help you create and maintain a state of quiet reflection - a cloister of the mind.
In addition to all the materials you need to create three Dharma Bead bracelets, Joanne Arettam has written a wonderfully accessible introduction to the meanings of various types of beads as well as their spiritual meanings and benefits.
