Malas, also known as prayer beads, can be used to support concentration, meditation, prayer, and japa (recitation of a mantra or affirmation). Wearing a blessed mala provides connection with the higher awareness and intention that is programmed into the mala. Some practitioners use a mala to assist in counting prayers or mantras, though this is not required. The state of mind during practice is the most important consideration. By concentrating the mind on each bead as a mantra or prayer is recited, other distracting thoughts are reduced. This leads to a more calm and contemplative state of mind, allowing for deeper reflection and inquiry into the nature of consciousness itself.
It is more important to have the mind focused and concentrated for a shorter session, than to have a longer period of practice with an unfocused mind. For example, a fifteen or twenty minute session with greater concentration is more useful than practicing for an hour with less focused attention. The higher blessings or intentions programmed into the malas available through
LotusElixir assist in experiencing this greater ease of focused concentration.
The power and blessing imprinted into any blessed object, including malas, is always present to the same degree.
The practitioner’s willingness and conscious intention to connect with that blessing allows for the healing, purifying, and uplifting energy to penetrate more deeply, thoroughly, and pervasively through the being. Wearing the mala has a continual transformational effect according to the specific blessing of that mala. It is recommended to wear the mala at least five to six hours daily, or more if desired or intuited. The blessings that are provided complement and enhance the natural properties of the substances from which the malas are made. As with any other blessed objects, specifically blessed malas can be provided according to the individual’s needs.
