Pray Prayer Beads Aventurine Jap Mala Necklace from India

Rituu Agarwal

(1071)

Rituu honours Hinduism and Buddhism with a glistening jap mala that is crafted by hand with aventurine, the stone of chance or luck. Also known as prayer beads or rosary, it consists of 108 malas or beads, sometimes 109, which are flicked with the thumb during jap or meditation. That way the person may concentrate fully on repeating mantras. In Buddhism, the 108 beads represent the human passions, while in Hinduism their symbolism is more complex. The number may refer to the names of Vishnu and Shiva in the Mahabharat; the 108 Upanishads; the number of deities of knowledge and various sciences; and the various permutations of the soul's defects, amongst others.

According to Hindu custom, the correct way to hold the jap mala is with the right hand, draped over the middle finger and using the thumb to flick through the beads. Since it is believed the index finger represents ego, the greatest impediment to self-realization, it is best avoided when chanting on a mala.

This jap mala features 435 gemstone carats.

Onyx dangle earrings, 'Tilem Moon'

Simple yet Elegant

I didn?t appreciate the size looking on the website-they were a little larger that I had expected. I should have payed more attention to the measurements. They are a little large for every day but perfect for evening.

This Christ on the cross is the third one I have bought and each time they appear to be even more beautiful. My family members will all be given these as gifts this coming Christmas. So, I am purchasing 3 more!

The lovely St. Benedict Medal hangs near a charming Bavarian Cuckoo Clock which sings out melodies on the hour sometimes interfering with my rendition of “Blue Monk” on my nearby Yamaha Piano.
