Beautiful, exotic bead material, but not glitzy or distracting. Comfortable size, weight and consistency with smooth, but not overly applied finish, and strong, skillful stringing. A fine, mindful addition to any spiritual pursuit or practice. Excellent gift or personal acquisition.

Very nice, well made and humble looking mala. Pairs nicely with my mantra bracelet, or worn around my neck. Feels so nice to the touch, super smooth beads, nicely finished wood beads and accent counter beads. 😁🤗

I am impressed with the Bodhi seed mala with beeswax beads purchased from DharmaObjects and wanted to assure others looking for an authentic mala from Nepal that these are exactly what you are looking for. They are large seeds and the mala is long and has a lovely movement, an elegant soft feel to them. Each beeswax bead is authentic also and capped with a beautifully designed silver cap. The beads help to remain mindful of calm emotions and actions toward myself and others while bringing a sense of well being to the spirit and if this is also what you seek you won’t be disappointed. They are high quality and have no cracks, fungus or insect eggs lurking inside and were properly inspected prior to sale. In addition they came in a soft satin drawstring embroidered bag for storage and protection but I would recommend wearing and using them for meditation and serenity instead of locking them away. Treat yourselves to something special and get these or gift them to a beloved friend as I’m certain you’ll agree they are a great purchase.

Seems to be good quality.had 108 beads.Beads were the right size and comfortable in the hands

What I wanted was something simple, and this is it. The beads are nice and light, and are not cold to touch like stones can be. Glad they had a version that had no metallic beads as separators as those are just for looks and are not part of the "official 108 count" and I felt those would interrupt my concentration. The string is a nylon looking cord with a few small tie-off beads, making it very unobtrusive to wear.

There are many uses for this necklace. It smells authentic and is made well. I’ve traveled with it and laid it around random places enough times to believe it’s going to stand the test of time.I’ve really enjoyed these beads. I’m not Catholic or from a religion or culture where I would be accustomed to using something like this.On the other hand, I am a medium and psychic and find that I need methods for staying out of the “empath zone” where others energy and emotions take me over.This has helped to be a grounding tool for me. I count the beads to distract me from the emotions involved with peoples stories. I can hear what they are saying and do my work with the barrier.Also, I’ve used it for myself when wanting to be in a peaceful place. I’ve also played a variety of games with myself like counting something I’m grateful for with each bead.

I took a risk on this rudraksha Mala and I'm very happy I did!Smells a bit like maybe linseed oil? I like the smell!Traditionally, they should be treated with ghee and soaked in full fat milk.But for the price, I don't mind that they're oiled.The beads are whole, uncracked, and uniform in size. They are real, not plastic.They are string very well on what appears to be yellow nylon cord. I'd prefer natural materials here, but for the price and quality of the beads, I'm very happy.Radraksha are bodhi tree seeds. They are from nature. They will have flaws and some will eventually crack.You need to know this going in.It's not Mardi gras beads, people.

These beads are beautiful, the price is good. The beads have a texture; I don't see any cracks like one reviewer said. I like the pouch; I leave the beads on my meditation cushion twisted twice, like it shows in the picture, on the pouch. I don't wear them; they would be kind of bulky for that. I certainly don't need them for the type of tibetan meditation I do, but I was keeping track of my breath, and the counting seemed to get in the way, so I thought I'd try this. I like it, although I'm still not sure whether it's just something to preoccupy me or not. I like that it's bodhi tree seeds; it's nice symbolism. I'm interested in the 108 bead count that seems to be common in these malas. In 30 minutes I go around it something like twice. Looks like a sturdy yellow nylon cord the beads are strung on.
