A classic wrist mala, handcrafted from the spiritual wood known as Agarwood. Beautiful, natural Agarwood beads with resin streaks and grain patterns highly visible throughout. A bead engraved with the Buddhist mantra 'Om Mani Padme Hum' reminds us to live with intention, meaning and happiness. The mantra 'Om Mani Padme Hum' is easy to say yet quite powerful, because it contains the essence of Buddhist teaching. Om is the sound or “vibration” of the universe. It is meant destroy attachments to ego and establish generosity. Ma removes the attachment to jealousy and establishes ethics. Ni removes the attachment to desire and establishes tolerance and patience. Pad removes the attachment to prejudice and establishes perseverance. Me removes the attachment to possessiveness and establishes concentration. Hum removes the attachment to hatred and establishes practice of wisdom. So in this way recitation of the mantra helps achieve perfection in the six practices from generosity to wisdom. Agarwood (also called Aloeswood or Oud) is prized as a spiritual wood and has been used in Buddhist meditation for centuries. Many believe Agarwood contains the positive life energy (Feng Shui) of growth, expansion, new beginnings, nourishment and health. Agarwood bracelets and necklaces are carried or worn to manifest positive energy and good fortune. Agarwood is naturally formed within the forests of Southeast Asia when the Agar tree develops resins as a natural defence against infection. Over an extensive period of time (up to 100 years), the resin saturates the wood, resulting in a rare, dark, beautiful heartwood.
