I often pick this small sandalwood mala from the display first. It feels warm, has a subtle woody scent, and accompanies you without being obtrusive.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSandalwood Mala 108 Beads – ⌀ 6 mm\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis delicate mala consists of 108 sandalwood beads with a diameter of 6 mm and a total weight of only about 11 grams. This makes it particularly lightweight and comfortable to wear – whether during meditation, in everyday life, or as a silent companion on travels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe warm wooden beads show the natural grain of the sandalwood, giving each mala its unique character. It is complemented by a traditional Guru bead and a vibrant yellow tassel, commonly found on prayer beads from the Himalayan region.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes sandalwood special?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSandalwood has been valued for centuries in India, Tibet, and many parts of Asia. The wood is known for its fine texture, warm color, and subtle natural fragrance. This is particularly appealing for a mala: with every touch, you feel the pleasant surface of the wood and the connection to a material that has been used for spiritual objects for generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThanks to the small 6mm beads, this mala glides particularly smoothly through the fingers. Many people prefer this size for longer meditations or for daily wear under clothing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMeaning \u0026amp; Tradition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe number 108 holds special significance in Buddhism and Hinduism. A full round over all beads traditionally corresponds to one mantra recitation. In everyday Tibetan life, malas are far more than just prayer beads – they accompany people during meditation, walking, traveling, or simply as a reminder to always return to their own breath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor me, sandalwood has a very calming effect. When someone in the shop picks up a sandalwood mala, they often automatically slow down their counting. The wood feels warm and friendly, almost as if inviting you to pause for a moment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare \u0026amp; Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eProtect from prolonged moisture and do not wear in water.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eAvoid direct sunlight for extended periods to maintain the wood's beauty.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eOccasionally wipe with a soft cloth to remove dust.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for mantra meditation, breathing exercises, or as a daily companion.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eLight, simple, and versatile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMany customers choose this mala as their first prayer bead because it is so uncomplicated. With its fine beads, it appears discreet, is comfortable to wear, and is suitable for both meditation and as a piece of jewelry in everyday life. Especially those looking for a lightweight mala often find exactly the right size here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Pouch – a small gesture from us\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach mala comes in a beautiful brocade pouch that we select to match. This keeps the mala protected and also makes it lovingly packaged – even if it's intended as a gift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr class=\"hv-divider\"\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCome by Kramgasse 63 in Bern and hold the sandalwood mala yourself.
