Ethically Sourced Bone Skull Mala - Buddhist meditation mala
About our Mala
This Ethically Sourced Bone Skull Mala, skillfully crafted from ethically sourced bone, is an essential spiritual tool in Tibetan Buddhism and Vajrayana traditions. The skull-shaped beads symbolize temporariness, mortality, and detachment, acting as a powerful reminder of life's fleeting nature. This mala is compact yet deeply symbolic, measuring 36.5 cm in length, with 9 mm beads, and weighs only 0.050 kilogram, making it excellent for meditation and advanced spiritual practices.
The delicately carved 108 skull beads represent the sacred number in Buddhism and Hinduism, indicating spiritual fulfillment and attention. A brilliant crimson tassel at the beginning and end of the mala represents vitality and protection throughout spiritual travels. This mala is ideal for meditations featuring wrathful deities such as Mahakala or Kali, as it helps believers confront mortality and transform fear into enlightenment.
This skull mala serves as a bridge between the material and spiritual worlds, whether utilized for mantra recounting, breath counting, or contemplative meditation. It encourages practitioners to embrace the teachings of impermanence, let go of worldly illusions, and embark on a journey to freedom. A great addition to personal practice or as a thoughtful present for those seeking an additional spiritual connection.
Introduction to mala beads
Tibetan mala beads are sacred and spiritual accessories used in meditation and prayer practices. These bead strings typically consist of 108 beads, though shorter variations exist. Each bead is carefully handcrafted from materials like wood, bone, or gemstones, and they are often adorned with a guru bead and a decorative tassel. Mala beads serve as a tactile aid for counting mantra repetitions or breaths during meditation, fostering mindfulness and concentration. They hold deep significance in Tibetan and Buddhist traditions, helping practitioners connect with their inner spirituality while embodying a sense of peace and mindfulness in daily life.
