The word \"mala\" means \"garland\" in Sanskrit and is often used to support spiritual practice. You often see people using malas during prayer, yoga, and meditation. A mala helps with counting mantras during meditation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhether you're just starting meditation or are already experienced, mala beads are a great tool to focus your attention. They provide something tangible to fall back on when your thoughts wander.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere's an interesting explanation for having 108 beads on a mala, related to the chakras, the seven energy points in our body. It is said that there are 108 energy lines (nadis) that converge in the heart chakra. One of these lines, the sushumna, leads to the crown chakra and is seen as the path to self-realization.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1: bindu, the starting point of creation.\u003cbr\u003e0: sunyata, emptiness, the state that frees us from the endless cycle of reincarnations.\u003cbr\u003e8: ananta, the infinity symbol.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCopyright: All photos are taken by Stones \u0026amp; Art and are the property of Gemstones-Art.
