All mala and sumerani are handmade by Sanyamatma.
They are made with the intention that they are to be used as a meditation aid
to hold the mind fixed for the practice of mantra repetition.
Special thanks to those who introduced me to the wonderful practice of mala making, especially:
Swami Dharmashakti (Ammaji), Swami Pragyananda, Swami Prakashananda and Sannyasi Mitrayananda.

M A L A
Unless otherwise stated all mala have
108 beads separated by the
Bramhagranti, or knot of creation. Offset from the main loop is
a
Sumeru bead and tassle
to mark the end of 108 mantra repetitions
(similar to
the picture on the left). |

S U M E R A N I
Sumerani have 27 beads. They are continuous, without a tassle and are traditionally used for "Japa Anusthana", where japa is practised 24 hours a day for a set period. Because of the fixed number of beads some fit on the wrist some don't.
8mm beads fit most people. |
