Hand strung High Quality wooden bead Buddhist Rosary on strong cord.

This is a High Quality, Old, hardened, and polished Holy Tamarind Tree Wood Prayer Bead Buddhist Rosary, cured over a long time period, and bound using strong colored cord for long term frequent use. An excellent shiny hard wooden bead rosary, that slides smoothly through the fingers when passing each bead along, in rhythm with the prayer or Mantra. Perfect for counting long numbers of Kata, Prayers & Incantations. Recommended for both Votive or Meditative use.

108 Beads are used to complete the Rosary, as Buddhist Tradition requires. The number 108 represents many different symbolic meanings in Buddhism, including the 108 Termas or Kampira of Buddha-Dhamma which Guru Padmasambhava is said to have taken to and hidden in Tibet and other places around South east Asia, to protect and preserve the Buddhist Faith, and the Buddha Dhamma itself.

It is usual to empower or pray with mantras using 108 repetitions as the powerful method of attaining merits.

The beads are very comfortable for use, and allow you to slide the beads through your fingers when chanting mantras with the greatest of ease, freducing any distractions which might arise from having to concentrate upon maintaining a grip on the beads.

A close up shows the different tones which shine through the hardened cured wooden bead surface. A very strong colored bound cord is used which guarantees a sturdy and long lasting rosary.
