Lovely Mala
"I love my Mala necklace. It's absolutely beautiful and exceeded my expectations. Thanks again Energy muse."
First created in India over 3000 years ago, mala beads have been worn for thousands of years by yogis and spiritual seekers from all over the world. Pre-dating the rosary, the history of mala beads is rooted in Hinduism, Buddhism, Tibetan culture and yoga, as it is an ancient modality used for prayer, meditation and ultimately, for a focused intention. The word mala in Sanskrit means "meditation garland," and originally, mala beads were used in a special style of meditation called Japa, which means "to recite."
Traditionally, mala necklaces have 108 beads. Why 108? The number 108 is a very auspicious and spiritually significant number, and there’s a reason why. Throughout history, the number 108 has held multidimensional meaning, manifesting itself in our universe in many more ways than we realize:
Sun and the Earth: The diameter of the Sun is 108x the diameter of the Earth. The distance from the Sun to the Earth is 108x the diameter of the Sun.
Heart Chakra: Chakras are the intersections of energy lines, and there are said to be a total of 108 energy lines converging to form the heart chakra. One of them, the sushumna, leads to the crown chakra, and is said to be the path to self-realization.
1, 0, and 8: Many believe that the number 1 stands for God, or the higher truth, 0 stands for completeness in spiritual practice, and 8 stands for infinity.
Planets and Houses: In astrology, there are 12 houses and 9 planets. 12 x 9 = 108.
This Chakra Mala Necklace combines the power of the mala necklace with 7 crystals and Rudrashka beads.
