A Rudraksha Mala is made of sacred Rudraksha beads, the dried seeds of the Elaeocarpus ganitrus tree. Each bead carries natural lines called mukhis, representing divine energies. Traditionally, a mala contains 108 beads plus one bindu bead, used for meditation and spiritual practices.
The number 108 symbolizes completeness in Hindu and Vedic traditions. It represents 108 types of energies, mantras, and the universe’s wholeness. Chanting with 108 beads helps align the mind and spirit.
Authentic Rudraksha Malas are hand-threaded using sacred Rudraksha beads. Each bead is cleaned, energized, and strung on a natural cotton or silk thread, often with a guru bead (bindu) at the center to signify completion.
