The mala is hand-strung by myself and I blessed it. Mala measures approximately 36 inches around.  Beads are about 10mm. Skull spacers are  12mm.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nMEANING OF THE MALA :\u003cbr\u003e\nBone beads allow us to reflect upon the Buddhist teachings of impermanence.  They serve as a reminder to live in the present moment; because nothing is permanent, everything is possible.\u003cbr\u003e\nBone is a traditional material used in malas in both Nepal and Tibet. Bone represents the earth and our connection to it. Bone is also said to signify strength and to amplify prana (life force energy.)\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 NamasteYOGAstore customers are fond of this reminder that nothing lasts forever.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nMEASUREMENT :\u003cbr\u003e\nApproximate Circumference: 27″\u003cbr\u003e\nMala measures approximately 36 inches around. \u003cbr\u003e\nBeads are about 8mm, Skull spacers are 12mm by 12mm.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nSuggested Mantras for this Mala:\u003cbr\u003e\nAham Brahma Asmi\u003cbr\u003e\nSo Hum\/Ham Sa\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIntentions for this Mala:\u003cbr\u003e\nEnergy \/ Vitality, Strength \/ Endurance\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nA NOTE ABOUT BONE BEADS :\u003cbr\u003e\nIn the Himalayas, it is typical for large animals such as yak or water buffalo to be used for service, food, clothing, and ritual items.  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\nMALA BEADS INFORMATION  :\u003cbr\u003e\nOur  Bone  Mala is individually handcrafted using high-quality natural materials so some slight variations in bead size, color, markings, and shape are expected and reflect the unique and organic beauty of each mala.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAll of our mala beads are backed by our 108-day breakage guarantee.
