They are traditionally linked with Lord Shiva and with a life of remembrance, discipline, and devotion.

Many devotees also wear a mala around the neck. There is no single required method; follow the practice you were taught, or the notes we share once this product's details are complete.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is customary to handle a mala with clean hands and to keep it off the floor. Some people like to begin with a short prayer before wearing it for the first time. These are customary courtesies, not rules we impose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep the mala clean and dry. Avoid harsh soaps, strong perfumes, and prolonged soaking. When you are not wearing it, store it in a clean, dry place — a soft cloth pouch is often used. Treat it with the same respect you would give any object of prayer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore specific care notes can be added once the materials and finish of this mala are confirmed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePlease note\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePricing and complete specifications are still to be added, which is why this product remains a draft.
