- You’ve probably been seeing a lot of malas around yoga studios, at festivals, etc...but what are they REALLY for? Here I share the sacred, divine purpose of mala beads and how you can use them. A HUGE thank you to Shivaloka for sponsoring this video, they are like mala/rudraksha heaven for yogis. Make sure to check them out at omshivaloka.co... You can even get 10% off anytime with my code PRASIDDHA10 !
Japamalas have been used in eastern tradition for meditation and chanting practice for at least 7,000+ years. They are an age-old part of the yogic tradition. Traditionally, malas should have 108 beads plus guru bead. Malas are used as Prayer beads, for spiritual healing, for divine connection, for protection, or even to bring out certain qualities of the wearer.
Malas have been a deep spiritual practice of Hindus and Buddhists for generations. They deserve a complete understanding, respect and intention. Each stone, crystal, seed has a purpose and power behind it. Make sure to do your research and find whats right for you.

Great video! I sell malas at my farmers market booth. Most people purchase them for fashion but it is a fun and great opportunity to educate folks about meditation and the significance of 108. We also made malas and had an intention circle with them in YTT. I am excited that something so fashionable can be a great vehicle to teach more folks about meditation.
All mala’s made with love, good intentions and especially from spiritual people are good. You don’t have to go to a ‘resource’. The source is you and those who make it. Even when it’s wood from a tree in the garden or a seed from a beautiful plant. It’s the intention and you don’t need a book for it. It’s inside you and will charge on your intention and I like it also on my clothing. This is a subtitle publicity for own purposes. Follow your heart people, all mala’s are well when made by love and 108 beads x
lots of fake ones though not so fun gotta be careful with those and get the real true kind real rudkrakshas have a unique amazing beautiful high vibration and are worth getting!!!
Good stuff, girl. Thanks for the info! I'm a Jesus-Freak myself, but I use the beads to count my breaths. My fellow Christians totally gloss over how much it says in our book to meditate. Beads are SO useful for me, plus they're quite fashionable. Blessings!
Hey, A lot of people saying www.buddhistbracelet.com has better bracelets and me 100% I bought from them and From the Shipping time to the quality is crazy if you guys want an actual bracelet I would highly recommend them to you!!!
Hey check out 'Buddah maitreya the christ' he is a Christian buddhist. Life changing for me 💕🕉️🙏
It took me 10 years of wondering why people use them, and to put 2 and 2 together to finally find out how to actually use prayer beads lol. All my life I'm like "Why do people have these beads they use in prayer?"... It took till I turned to Hinduism (which I guess I'm glad, I'm really enjoying it) and the 108 mantras repetitions to Hanuman that I thought "There has to be a way I can count these without listening to a video to count for me, and that isn't disturbing.".. and after thinking about it for awhile I then pulled out a set of beads a friend bought me while he was in Jerusalem, and realized there's 54 beads on them; after that I read about malas lol.
They really fail to explain all this in Christianity (or at least the places I went too), they're so busy with whose interpretation of the Bible is the most accurate than to actually tell you how to practice and meet God yourself lol. I wish I got the talk that said "Here's a set of beads, go around the set of beads twice as you pray for something because 108 is important. There are 108 energy centers in your body, and you are energetically connected to God, so that's why we say God is inside you.".
I’ve been waiting for your to make this video , thank you so much I love your input in this it’s so accurate on the true meaning for mala beads
Thank you for listening love 💗
I definitely see mala's as something that can be universal, yet also very specific to a time and place. Educating yourself is important before using them. I don't understand how people can use them just for jewelry. Wouldn't they still have an energy/intention/vibration of some sort?
I see it as something that helps us go deeper into ourselves or our practice. That's beautiful.
Thank you for keeping this informative video up. Thank you for sharing your knowledge 🙏🏻
I just got my new grounder and I loved it immediately. Hematite is not only good for Leo's but its good for grounding as well. Love your videos!
What makes me very happy is you inspire everyone ❤❤
Truthfully, my intuition told me what kind of crystals I should have on my mala (the image in my mind was almost instant). It was blue, and the crystals were a toss up between Angelite and Aquamarine, although I found that Aquamarine just suited me better. Now doing more research into Aquamarine, I see how much it matches my intention that I am currently brewing in my mind for the mala I cannot wait to make. Thank you for educating me further on mala's. Now I will definitely have to do the candle meditation.
In the Tibetan book of the dead, they say the light blue light you might see (if you're not liberated by then by realizing the white light is you and going towards it) is very seductive... I would imagine because it's gentle and soothing. Also in the Navajo stories elders tell of where their tribes come from (very interesting, I recommend listening to the Navajo elder talk about it who posts on TH-cam.. extremely wise man) mention that they first started in the black world, then transitioned into the blue world, and went to where we currently are in the yellow world, and the next world is the white world. This is why aquamarine and silver is important to them.
I've been meaning to relisten to the tibetan book of the dead again to hear what they had to say about the blue light. I can also relate to aquamarine personally, as it's also strangely my birth stone... So it is very appealing to me as well.
Well done as always
Thank you 😊🙏🏻
Kundalini Amazing Video I sat here and watched all the way though. 🙏🏾
I recently lost my mother to cancer. My grief counselor mentioned mala beads to me. I am now very interested in them. But I know nothing about yoga or anything related to these traditions. Any advice about mala beads and grief?
So sorry for your loss🙏❤️ yes there are many stones that can be beneficial for healing of the heart like quartz, amethyst, Apache tears, green adventurine🙏💞
Just placed my first order with Shivaloka using your code ! Treated myself to a nice Rudra bracelet : )
wooo so exciting! cant wait for you to see how powerful they are!
All beads made with pure intention it’s the same energy collectively. There is “only from source”
Source is collective energy. It’s everywhere. The energy it’s ours only depends on our free will we choose.
Thank you for your video
thank you so much!! im selling my pc more then likely to buy a mala from this shop i am thankful also you are very beautiful
What’s the Nepalese you wearing with one bead called
Thank you, Ma💖 I registered for Vertical Time Zones just now! So excited!
me tooo cant wait!!
Ma, would it be appropriate to use a mala in a non-spritual way such as to chant affirmations like "I can do it, I am good enough, etc." Love crystals and malas but do not want to be culturally inappropriate or offend any deitys. Thank you for your time.
I think it would be appropriate to use a stone or crystal mala that isn't connected to a particular deity 😊
i have watched your vid --and i see you are well versed knowledge -well balanced --
👌
Great video. Thanks for the clear explanation.
What are your favorite mantras to use with your mala?

Love the shirt - maybe cover that and where we can legit minimalist clothing?
Do mala beads contain your own desires/energy or chi?
That’s not how it works. Mala is a tool for mindfulness and focus. That’s all.
@@NikkiGrimm actual they can be used for manifestation of your own specific desires! i recommend purchasing malas that have stones/woods that meet the same qualities as your desires. you can (and should) project your own chi into everything!
810th like, I know you said 108 but the synchronicity is mind blowing 🤯🤯🤯💜💜🕉
Sorry you might now answer. But is it okay to have plastic mala beads
Your so beautiful if you don't mind me asking what is your background ?
thanks for everything
I went on the site you recommended I call and the number is out of order I want to buy rudraksha is there another site you can recommend and is this store out of business.
The site is working. No need to call just place your order through the website!
I love your videos. Question about where you meditate with your mala and chant. Do you do it in your home puja or is any quiet space ok? Also, with your Lakshmi mala for example, did you say a Lakshmi prayer? I know you said Om Namah Shivaya for Rudraksha mala. I’m wondering if I got something intended for worship of another god if it would negate the intention of my mala by chanting Om Namah Shivaya? I know it’s universal but still want the purest intent. Appreciate any advice. Namaste 🙏
The length of the company does not work
The smaller beaded mala that you are wearing, where can I get one? Great video.
Hoping you see this... thank you so much 🙏✨ for your continued videos. I’ve been going through and watching your videos for months now. So much gratitude to you for sharing & explaining so candidly your spiritual journey. I’m leaning towards Krishna consciousness more every day. Please tell me where I can buy affordable Rudraksha beads/mala. I want them so badly but am currently, (due to anxiety & depression), not working and unable to find any that I can afford. I’m in Canada and have searched Etsy shops and Amazon, but the prices are so high. Do you have any recommendations for where I can buy authentic rudraksha beads inexpensively?
Thank you and please keep posting videos. I’m learning so much from you. 🙏✨💕 Blessings.
Are there any good sites for a lower budget? The website provided is lovely but a bit too expensive personally
You can find many malas on Etsy, created by small businesses. Do your research first and you should find a perfect one at whatever price-range.
You did more of a promotion thing than an explanation. I have this mala I felt attracted to in a store. Made out of yack bones. I need information about
Thank you!
Love you 💙
9 is also the number for pure consciousness and 1 + 8 equals 9 in numerology.
its also a number of letting go of endingS and can have to do with awakening from illusions and detaching!!
Why are they so expensive???
Anyone noticed nityananda statute behind her😂
I'm all about meditation but I'm conflicted due to my catholic beliefs. My question is practicing meditation with a Mala does this necessarily mean and portray that you are worshiping or praising a God like diety such as Shiva?
hello perhaps i can help ease your worries perhaps not but just incase i do happen to share some catholic beliefs and pray a version of the rosary and was even going to make a rosary necklace out of rudraksha incase it helps you to hear from me ultimately shiva and jesus are one i believe the rudkraksha seeds are of a higher vibration i was taught and help with mindfulness i dont want to act like a teacher theres much more others could say gl on your journey i think it may be simular to having a peice of cloth that was touched by saint peter that might be a good way to describe it they are a gift from god to help on the path to enlightenment perhaps i said some things incorrectly may i be corrected if so
Thank you so much I love your video, very good info especially for newbies like me! I'd like to ask you if its ok if we make our own malas? I've been feeling like it might be the best option for me. Any tips or should I avoid doing so all together? Thank you again! 🤍

Hello
Hi, I just bought some beads (different types) do to the intentions I want. What I would like to know is, if you put three different beads in a mala does the power of those beads lesson, since the whole mala is not the same bead?
Also would like to know if you put the beads of one intention together do you pray for that intention when you go to the following beads change the intentions or just the same intention all the way through?
Last, if I have 3 different malas that I wear during 40 days etc. Can I use each mala with a different intention ? For example intention mala good health chant every morning.
Afternoon mala of prosperity
And last mala at night chant for divine spirituality?
I hope this is isn't too confusing??
Thank you
Thank you for sharing
Those are 📿 mala beads. The ones with wire are rosary beads. If the don’t have guru beads then also not mala beads
But they could be Hindu
Which fits in as..
Japa beads are from Hinduism

ఎన్ని రుద్రాక్ష మాల వేయాలి
Hmmm, you’re holding the mala wrong.... Shouldn’t be touching your index finger.....
❤️
Are you hinda are white what is that red dot
Buddhists don't wear their malas as they are sacred items NOT JEWELLERY.
Why 11:30?
Technical error 😅☹️
There are 13 Zodiac signs though ?

Japamala are not jewelry, they are not meant to be worn as jewelry. In fact nobody should even be seeing your mala! It is not an accessory, or a piece of jewellery to be worn out and about to show the world how woke you are. Your mala is meant to be kept in a bag hidden from sight even when reciting Mantra. True some people do choose to wear them on their wrists, but those are usually Buddhists. The average person wearing a Malli out and about like it’s a piece of jewellery is clueless and should just stay away from it all together. Your mullet is a sacred artefacts and should be treated as that at all times.
This is what I was taught also.
why would it need to be hidden where does it say that in the scriptures!!???!?!
Pleeeeeease translate to Arabic 😢😢😢😢🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Careful... Too bad SHIVA IS A DARK ENTITY...
