Mala Bracelet – 27 Bead Prayer Bracelet with Recycled Sari Pouch

This compact Mala bracelet is made from 27 smooth wooden beads strung on elastic cord, designed to be worn around the wrist for easy access during spiritual practice. It includes a recycled sari pouch and a lokta paper information card explaining its use and significance, making it a thoughtful and meaningful gift.

The Mala, also known as a Japa Mala or prayer garland, is a sacred tool used in both Buddhist and Hindu traditions for mantra repetition, breath awareness and meditation. The number of beads traditionally used in a full Mala is 108, a number considered sacred and symbolically complete. The Mala bracelet contains a quarter of that total, making it practical and portable while still aligned with traditional spiritual structure. Reciting a mantra through the beads four times completes the full cycle of 108.

Crafted from Uttis wood, also known as Nepalese Alder, this Mala is natural, sustainable and rich in symbolic meaning. Each bead represents a step on the path to spiritual clarity and presence. The act of turning each bead while reciting a mantra such as Om Mani Padme Hum is believed to ground the mind, awaken awareness and support spiritual connection. The beads are passed between the fingers in a steady rhythm that encourages mindfulness and calm.

In traditional use, Malas are not just counting tools. They serve as companions for meditation, prayer and focused intention. They symbolise the cycles of life and the continuity of practice. This process nurtures inner peace and awareness while honouring centuries of spiritual tradition.

Each Mala bracelet includes a yellow tassel and comes with its own sari pouch made from repurposed fabric, giving each set a unique presentation.
