These Mala Beads come to us from Brindavan, India, where they have been hand-strung from local materials, and serve as an intrinsic part of the culture. Walking on the streets of Brindavan, you will see strings of Malas in hands, used to count repetitions of 108 mantras, worn around the neck to remind the wearer of his or her inherent holy nature, and hung on statues of deities and on the corners of framed pictures of gurus and saints. Each string of Malas, or prayer beads, contains 108 beads, a number which holds manifold numerological and mythological significance within the Hindu tradition, as for Hindus, it stands as the number most connected to human life. Adorning oneself with the Tulsi beads is said to assist in lowering fevers, restoring mental health, and respiratory function by traditional Ayurvedic medicine. It is said that the wearer of these beads will learn to embody the qualities of Krishna and Rama, and experience devotion and love in the heart. These hand-strung beads are 6mm and come in a 19 inch necklace. Each mala contains 108 genuine Indian Tulsi beads.
