It is used to count mantras during meditation.\u0026nbsp;A mantra is a collection of words, often from Sanskrit, which is repeated several\u0026nbsp;- traditionally 108 - times. While repeating,\u0026nbsp;you focus on the meaning and vibration of the words, possibly combined with the accompanying visualisation. By training\u0026nbsp;in a meditation practice like this, your thoughts come to rest and your body relaxes. Nowadays, a mala is also worn as a fashion accessory.\u003cbr style=\"mso-special-character: line-break;\"\u003e\u003c!-- [if !supportLineBreakNewLine]--\u003e\u003cbr style=\"mso-special-character: line-break;\"\u003e\u003c!--[endif]--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003eWhy 108?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\"\u003eMalas have 108 beads because this number has great scientific significance in the Hindu and buddhist traditions. \u0026nbsp;The circumference of the sun times 108 is the distance between the sun and the Earth and the same is true for the moon and Earth. \u0026nbsp;Also, there are 108 nadis or energy channels in the body. \u0026nbsp;There are 54 sanskrit letters- both masculine and feminine, totaling 108. \u0026nbsp;There are 108 Puranas and 108 Upanishads. \u0026nbsp;The list goes on and on!! \u0026nbsp;So that same sacred number is used in malas.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11px;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e*The characteristics of all mineral stones on our website are not scientifically proven; they are based on experiences of users and gemstone therapists.
