This high quality Bodhi Mala is made up of high quality, smooth and solid beads. Note that all beads will not be exactly 10mm as they are individual seeds that have been collected and strung together. However most will fall between 10 & 11mm in size.
A Bodhi seed mala is considered to be spiritually potent and therefore used during prayer and meditation. Bodhi trees are indigenous to Nepal and the Himalayan region. Their seeds can be identified by the distinct eye patterns that occur naturally on them, and have been historically used for making malas.
The word 'Bodhi' means 'awakened' in Sanskrit and devotees use these sacred beads to achieve their full spiritual potential. This special mala has been special strung on high quality and durable cord on our request. It is an excellent choice for personal, daily use and comes with a free bag for safe keeping.
The Bodhi seeds in this mala have not been stained or oiled, and are in their natural form. With use, the oils from your hands will add a shine to the mala and also smoothen them in the long term.
