Hold your mala in your right hand (in India the left hand is considered impure) and use your thumb to "count" each mantra by touching the bead during the recitation and then lightly pulling the bead towards you on completion and moving to the next bead. The index finger is extended and should not touch the mala. The large meru (mountain) bead should not be counted or touched by the thumb and is used as a starting and ending point of the recitation. If you have a wrist mala of 27 beads you will need to repeat this 3 more times. Continue by pulling the beads and going backwards until you again end at the meru and continue until you have done 108 repetitions, or multiples of 108. To empower the mala and the mantra used, japa (mantra meditation) should be practiced each day for 40 continuous days. When the mala becomes empowered it can be worn or lightly placed on oneself or others to transmit the energy of the mantra as well as the energetic qualities of the mala. When you use a new mantra with a mala, this energy becomes replaced, so it is recommended to use a new mala with each mantra if possible. Also broadens your outlook, best for students concentration, suited for goal fulfillment, achieving targets, family bonding, long lasting relationships, attracts positive energy and good people towards you

Not what I was expecting. The craftsmanship was not exactly the quality I was looking for. The knots we spread apart seem like it was rushed and the tassel I had to put a weight in the bottom of it to straighten it out. I've paid much less for malas and received much better quality and craftsmanship. I won't be buying from this seller again. Beads are really small. Can wrap around my wrist about three times. Quality of the beads seem ok.

Lovely beads. I wear them as a bracelet and get many compliments . Only negative comment is the fact that the package has to be signed for, so if your not home it means a trip to the postoffice. (I understand this practice for a more expensive item)
