Given the limited amount of resources and the religious practices of the people in the region, it is important that none of the animals goes to waste.  These amazing bone beads are handcrafted by artisans who recycle and reuse everything in daily life and spiritual practice.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nBone is a traditional material used in malas in both Nepal and Tibet. Bone signifies strength and is said to amplify prana (life force energy.)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nMy Buddhist practice revolves around impermanence.  We live only in the present moment and it is helpful to remember that nothing lasts.  Skulls are featured prominently in Tibetan symbolism and many of our DharmaShop customers are fond of this reminder that nothing lasts forever.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nMALA FEATURES :\u003cbr\u003e\nApproximate Circumference:\u003cbr\u003e\n 6.5 -  7.25″\u003cbr\u003e\nBead Size: \u003cbr\u003e\n10mm\u003cbr\u003e\nHandmade with 108 water buffalo bone beads including guru beads.\u003cbr\u003e\nThis mala is outsourced from Nepal and personally hand-strung by me.\u003cbr\u003e\n It includes naturally stained buffalo bone beads.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIntentions for this Mala: \u003cbr\u003e\nEnergy \/ Vitality\/Impermanence\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nDISCLAIMER :\u003cbr\u003e\nOur Bone Mantra Full Mala is individually handcrafted using high-quality natural materials.
