Buy Mala Tulsi Rosary – Japa Mala (Basil) – 108 beads of 0.7 cm

Tulsihout, a family of basil, is the most sacred wood, according to the Hindu tradition. It is worshipped in Indian temples as a living goddess. There is a Hindu legend that tells of Vishnu, who produced Tulsi from the turbulent sea, to assist mankind. According to Indian popular belief, the place where Tulsi is planted is consecrated as a place of pilgrimage, where the cronies of Death do not dare to penetrate. In India, Tulsi is seen as the most sacred plant. It is a multi-stroke, straight up growing shrub of about 1.20 meters. The leaves have a pleasant scent and contain tiny glands. The flowers are purple to dark red, in small bundles and the seeds are yellow or red. The Tulsi mala is made from the stems of the Tulsi plant – also called Holy Basil. Tulsi is also a medicinal plant, which helps to balance the properties of vata and kapha. Tulsi also helps to grow devotion and love from the heart. The beadle cord is mainly used to count mantras that are recited. So it actually has the same function as a rosary (Catholic Bribery Cable). Beads made of (semi-)precious stones, pearls, bodhi seeds or wood are suitable for many purposes, for counting all kinds of mantras or other prayers, bends, tours and the like. The cord is the same for all mala’s, and should consist of nine wires that symbolize the Buddha Vajradhara and the eight Bodhisattva’s. The large bead at the end represents the wisdom that realizes the complete emptiness and the cylindrical bead above it is the emptiness itself. Together they symbolise that all opponents have been defeated. The mala with 108 beads is used to recite or sing mantras. The number 108 is the ideal number for all purposes. It is important that our thoughts are pure when reciting or singing the mantra. Mantra is the practical use of secret forces to help us move forward. Mantra is a collection of letters from the alphabet. The effect is achieved by the repetition of the mantra; this becomes deeper the longer one recites. Essential is the sound produced by reciting. This sound produces and creates a unique spiritual impression in the person who recites. It is said that a mantra is like a human being; one has to go through several stages before the real effect is achieved: ‘purification of mental impressions’. There are several mantras that have their potential strength in themselves; these mantras may only be transferred from Master to Insider. These are the so-called ‘Siddha Mantra’s’.
