These are wonderfully fragrant sandalwood beads. A subtle uplifting energy can be felt when wearing, or meditating with these malas. We chose the combination of
sandalwood and
carnelian for their complimentary beauty
and beneficial vibratory qualities (see list below). Wear it comfortably to meditation, the yoga studio, to the opera - anywhere you want to look and feel good!
We make all our malas ourselves, to ensure high quality and that they start out with a peaceful vibration, not that of a restless factory. This wrist mala includes a set of 12 continuous sandalwood beads separated by contrasting, faceted carnelian beads - ideal for meditating, counting Kriyas or Mantras.

Beneficial Qualities of Sandalwood:
Sandalwood
is much-prized and has been used as a component in religious rituals
and ceremonies for thousands of years. Sandalwood is especially sacred
to Shiva and to Ganesha, the Lord of success and the remover of
obstacles. Sandalwood is said to aid in relaxation and to reduce mental
restlessness. In India, sandalwood beads are often worn for
purification, for protection, and for uplifting the mind, body, and
spirit.
Beneficial Qualities of Carnelian:
Carnelian is a grounding stone. It is excellent for restoring vitality
and motivation and stimulates creativity. It improves analytic abilities
and clarifies perception. It is a powerful protector against envy,
rage, and resentment (yours and other people's!)
Note: Because we buy a high volume of gemstones that are carefully
sourced for quality from all over the world, we are able to keep the prices low.
All our wrist malas come with a very nice gift Om pouch, made in India.
