    Very nice. Thank you 🙏. I have seen and asked me some people want or did take shower with wooden mala, wrist mala or seed mala. Definitely no water on wood and seed mala they will be break up. So no water on those and putting/rubbing little oil in the palm with make them nice texture and will stay long time. In Tibetan for mala it's called Trengwa.

    I have found the chanting of mantras to be extremely unhelpful. But I know many do indeed find it rewarding.

    Hindus (North India) - Mala
    Hindu (South India) - Malayi
    Buddhist (Everywhere) - Mala
    Wrist mala - 27+1 beads
    Half mala - 54+1 beads
    Full mala - 108+1 beads
    Hindus don't have finger malas. Christians use them and call it rosary ring. you can get one for 10/- at a church.

    Thank you. I have been searching for answers about the tibetan mala and mantras for a while. I live out in the 'country' and it is not easy to go to a prayer circle with a Tibetan essence. Thank you again.

    This was a very nice talk, thank you so much. Does anyone know why Indian rudraksha malas are frowned upon by tibetan buddhists? My roots are christian followed by zen and then tibetan buddhism, but lately interested in hinduism. any info appreciated. thanks.

    Please, I would like to thank you for the many useful information presented on in your site (TH-cam). I ask: Why do we look for images of monks praying in their malas, do we see these malas with four, five or more counters? Is there any greater reason than simply counting the tens, hundreds, thousands, or millions of mantras?

    • @kiratrai
      @kiratrai 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      We counts thousands or millions for shiddhi

  • @Bigvader

    I have heard from other teachers that the index finger should not be used to count or move the beads as it is attributed to ego and can negatively charge the mala. On what basis do you teach differently? Thank you.

    • @YelshayLove
      @YelshayLove 8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I was wondering the same thing.

    • @Bigvader
      @Bigvader 8 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      +YelshayLove From what I can tell, it seems to be mostly those of the Hindu tradition who are adamant about not utilizing the index finger. Adherents to Buddhist traditions, and especially Tibetan Buddhism, don't seem to place any importance such things, and will tell you that the intent is what matters. Still, it's hard to find a definitive answer.

    Thank you for this information video. Could you also please tell what is the material of the mala you are using? So that we can also purchase the same in the market

    Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge, with wisdom and humility. If I remember correctly, the index finger represents the Ego, so it is considered avoided when using a Mala, isn't it? Or perhaps it's my memory fault?

    *You have mixed the information up.*
    You mentioned Hindu mala tradition as Tibetan and the Tibetan as Hindu in many cases...
    But overall good video.
