Malas
A mala is a traditional string of prayer beads used across Hindu and Buddhist meditation practice, most commonly strung with 108 beads plus one additional "guru" bead — each bead touched once per mantra repetition (japa) during meditation or chanting. Auvyam's malas are made from a range of genuine materials, including gemstone beads such as garnet, jade and turquoise, as well as natural woods like ebony and olive. In crystal healing traditions, different stones are associated with different intentions; these are traditional associations rather than medical claims. Every mala ships across India.
