Tigers Eye Japa Mala Prayer Beads | 8mm

Tiger eye is a quartz mixed with iron compounds, which provide the distinctive striped effect. Tiger eye has a strong connection with the sun and the solar plexus. The stone is warming, uplifting and 'burns' negative influences. It revitalises and makes you feel more energetic.

The string of beads is mainly used to count repeated mantras, serving the same purpose as a rosary. Beads made of semi-precious stones, pearls, bodhi seeds or wood may serve all kinds of goals, like counting any kind of mantras, or other forms of prayer, bows, walk-rounds and such. The cord is the same for every mala, and should be made of nine threads, symbolising the Buddha Vajradhara and the eight Bodhisattvas. The larger bead at the end stands for wisdom, realising emptiness, and the cylindrical bead on top of the large bead symbolises the void itself. Together, they symbolise the triumph over all adversities.
