This Bodhi wrist mala has been designed and assembled by Kunga right here at home in Sydney. It features Bodhi and a Dzi bead held together by stretchy cord.
Bodhi beads are thought to be very powerful in terms of spiritual potential, and can be identified by their unique eye pattern. These trees are indigenous to Nepal and the Himalayan region, and often found close to major pilgrimage sites.
The Bodhi beads in this mala bracelet are smooth and polished, and approximately 12 mm in size. Suitable for both men and women.
Care Tip
New Bodhi beads that haven't been 'worn in' can dry out when they come in contact with water, as they are a seed. If this happens, you can restore the dark colour of your mala by rubbing 2-3 drops of olive oil in the palm of your hand first and then massaging them on to the beads. Let the oil dry out for 5 minutes, and then you're good to go.
As you continue to wear your mala and use it, the natural oils from your skin will bind with the beads and act as a polish. More info on our blog:
