Product Description
Mala Beads are a Buddhist tool of meditation. They are moved in rhythm with the breath and mantra of the meditation. The action of moving the beads keeps sleep and distraction at bay and incorporates more of the whole body in the meditation. Each time the mantra is repeated, the fingers move to the next bead. The mala is meant to focus the mind and promote clear thought about the meaning of the mantra as it is chanted. Schools of thought, from India, to Tibet, to China recommend different ways of holding and counting Mala beads, but these are mostly local idiosyncrasies. However each meditation should encompass the full cycle of beads. Longer meditations should include additional full cycles, starting at the summit and circling around again to the beginning. Reorient offers sandalwood Mala beads from Guangdong province in China. Each string has 108 beads.

This review is from: Traditional Mala Beads, 9mm - Black Meditation Mantra Beads (Kitchen)
I recieved this a few weeks ago. It's perfect. 108 main beads, 3 smaller seperator beads and one larger head bead seperating them into 4 groups of 27. every other bead is engraved with a meditating Buddha. I use it for my daily meditation, and wear it any time I leave the house.

Not what i expected at all,

This review is from: Traditional Mala Beads, 9mm - Black Meditation Mantra Beads (Kitchen)
i received the beads today, when i opened the package i first noticed the dharma wheel sewn decal at the middle of the string, had 6 points, not 8. After that they were not easy to thread through my hands because of the material being a wood designed plastic. The beads are much small than i thought, they do mention the size but still my expectations weren't met, just aesthetically.
I might return them if i can, i'm not sure yet i'm hopping they grow on me. your getting what you pay for, for a $7.00 string of beads, the string looks pretty sturdy though.
