Description
Composed of beads of different kinds, malas allow you to concentrate on reciting the mantras, while at the same time conferring different virtues on the person who owns them. Usually made from Rudraksha beads, they are sometimes embellished with precious or semi-precious stones, which themselves have specific benefits according to lithotherapy.
The Elaeocarpus angustifolius tree is grown in India. Rudrakshas are the seeds of this tree and are harvested once they have fallen to the ground. They are considered sacred in many cultures. They are sometimes called "Shiva's tears".
Carnelian beads strengthen your centre and help you to develop your creativity and intuition. They help you to regain your self-confidence. Known as a stone for connecting and reconciling with your mother's energy, it soothes your fears and anxieties. It also allows your sexuality to express itself and enhances your libido.
Connected to the second chakra, this bracelet will help you accept your feelings and let them flow for greater serenity.
The Mala Spirit adventure began when Frank, its founder, decided to leave everything behind to go abroad in search of meaning. Before this trip, Frank had already developed a special affection for mala necklaces, some of which he owned. When he returned home and found his sacred malas, something clicked. Mala Spirit was born.
Frank works with Soma Temple, the creator of Aum Rudraksha Designs. Based in Bali, Indonesia, Soma has been encouraged by her spiritual master Papaji in India to create and distribute malas around the world, particularly in the West. According to Papaji, if everyone wears the sacred Rudraksha beads, the world will be a place of peace.
The Rudraksha pearls used by Aum Rudraksha Designs are grown organically and locally on their plantation in Indonesia. The company's activities revolve around eco-responsibility and environmental protection. All their creations are made in a spirit of sharing love and peace around the world.
Traditionally, the mala is a support for prayers in Hindu and Buddhist culture. It can be likened to the rosary or rosary beads of other religions. Mala means "garland" in Sanskrit. It is used to concentrate the mind while reciting the mantras. After each mantra recited, the practitioner advances one bead on the necklace.
Malas always have a number of beads referring to the number 108, as this is a sacred number in the Buddhist tradition. They are made up of round Rudraksha beads and sometimes other precious or semi-precious stone beads (carnelian, lapis lazuli, agate, tiger's eye, turquoise, quartz, citrine, etc.) which have specific properties (calming, courage, rejection of negative energies, serenity, etc.). Mala necklaces end with a pendant ('guru') and a pompom.
Rudraksha pearls are considered sacred in Asia. They are sometimes called 'Shiva's tears'. The smaller they are, the rarer and more precious they are. They come from a tree called Elaeocarpus angustifolius, which grows exclusively in South-East Asia. These seeds are known for their protective and energising properties.
Mala Spirit sees malas as useful for everyone. For yogis and yoginis who want something to help them recite their mantras during meditation. But also for people looking for an organic and ethical piece of jewellery (necklace or bracelet) that will give them energy, peace and love.
As well as providing you with beautiful necklaces and bracelets, Mala Spirit is also a brand committed to social and environmental causes. For every purchase, Frank is committed to donating a portion to charity. What's more, the manufacture of the malas supports the passionate work of the Aum Rudraksha Designs team. Employees are paid what they are worth and the company provides work for an entire village during the high season.
If you wish to transmit your intentions to the beads that make up your mala bracelet, do not wear it immediately on receipt. Wait until Monday, the day dedicated to Shiva, and perform the following ceremony. In this way, the bracelet will carry energy and a kind of connection will be created.
- Sit back and relax in a quiet, restful environment.
- Fill a container with water and place a few flowers in it. Dip your Devotion bracelet in it.
- A stick of incense can help you relax your body and mind.
- Once you have reached a stage of relaxation that you feel is sufficient, cleanse each of the beads in your mala. At the same time, visualise your intentions and transmit them to the beads. Imagine them as protectors and carriers of good energy.
- Chant the mantra "OM HREEM NAMAH SHIVAYA OM". It is synonymous with Shiva's tears.
- You can now wear your bracelet and benefit from its virtues.
If you feel that your mala has accumulated a lot of energy over time, take the time to wash it to reset it. This will discharge the energies and make it ready to receive them again. To do this:
- Turn on your tap and place your bracelet under running water
- Touch each pearl with the intention of cleaning it
- Leave your mala to air dry, then massage each of the pearls with a little natural oil.
