“mala bracelet -This style of bracelet is called a bodhi mala and sometimes called yoga beads. They are worn and used by Buddhists and monks. Malas are strings of beads that are used to count the mantras which are recited. A mantra is a word or series of words chanted to invoke spiritual qualities.
Often Buddhist will recite thousands of mantras at a time. The mala helps not only with counting mantras but also to focus one concentration and awareness. When using the mala you use your fingers, reciting the mantra and visualize the deity. Doing this you are involving the whole body, speech and mind.
Even if you are not Buddhist these bracelets can be worn and are still thought to bring the wearer good luck and energy.”

Very nice beads I am new to being a Buddhist and got these to wear for practicing mantras and just keeping for good energy. The elastic string that holds these together is pretty decent quality. The sandalwood beads are nice as well, but they smell weird like a pencil. I guess that’s what sandalwood smells like. The guru bead, or rather square thing on this bracelet reads “Peace and Wealth” on one side, but on the other side I’m not sure what the symbol is. I have average wrist size for a guy and it…
View CommentVery nice It’s a steal for the price. Size is not too big, not too small. Everything came as pictured, aside from color. It’s more like a very very dark brown than it is black (still looks very nice).
View CommentGood looking bracelet The product is exactly as pictured and some people complain about the smell, but I assume they are clearly unfamiliar with sandalwood which these are commonly made of. Sandalwood is known for its smell. It is used in incense too. I like the smell. It smells like fresh cut wood. The bracelet is very nice looking and smells good if you like the smell of sandalwood. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a mala or bodhi bracelet that isn’t ugly, or wants a nice looking good luck charm.
