Why do Malas have 108 beads? – Manipura Malas

A Mala (necklace in Sanskrit) is a string of prayer beads often used in Japa Meditation. We recite a mantra as we pass beads through our fingers. While practicing mantra doesn’t require a mala, it is a helpful kinaesthetic counting device, making sure we complete 108 cycles of our chosen Mantra. Here is all you need to know about this Ancient practice.
