Origin and symbolism of the 108-bead mala

A mala is a rosary traditionally used in Hinduism and Buddhism. It is used to count mantras during recitation, meditation, or prayer. Derived from the Sanskrit "japa mala," it literally means "repetition garland."

The number 108 beads is not insignificant:

• It symbolizes the 108 trials that Buddha had to go through to reach enlightenment.

• According to Ayurveda, there are 108 sacred energies in the human body.

• In Vedic astrology, we find 12 signs x 9 planets = 108 combinations .

• In ancient texts, 108 is considered a universal sacred number .

Each bead thus represents a breath, an intention, or a recited mantra.

Origin and symbolism of the 9 planets (Navagraha)

In Vedic astrology, the Navagraha (नवग्रह) represent the nine major cosmic forces. Each is associated with a deity, a mantra, a color, and a stone.
