Carved Bone Mala: 100 Count - Rudraksha, Coral, and Horn (#013)

This 100-count mala is handmade with precision and care, constructed during ritual recitation to align it with spiritual focus and discipline. It features 8mm natural Rudraksha beads, known for their grounding and stabilizing properties. Traditionally believed to promote mental clarity and inner protection, Rudraksha has long been used as a support for deep spiritual focus and energetic shielding. Their textured surface also provides a tactile anchor for each recitation.

Every tenth bead is marked with a 14mm natural coral bead. Coral is associated with vitality, strength, and protection from negative forces. It adds a dynamic energy to the mala, helping to reinforce courage, endurance, and forward movement in one’s spiritual efforts.

The guru bead is a large, hand-carved skull made from horn. The skull symbolizes impermanence and inner reflection—reminding the practitioner of the importance of discipline, awareness, and the stripping away of ego in the face of truth. Horn, as a material, is connected to strength and resilience, making this a powerful focal point for closing or pausing a session of recitation.

This mala also includes a counter made from real snake vertebrae. The vertebrae serve both a functional and symbolic role. Energetically, they represent transformation, shedding of the old, and movement through cycles—key principles for any serious spiritual path. Their distinct texture also provides a clear tactile marker during extended sessions.

Strung on a high-strength cord, this mala is built to last and hold up to daily use. Whether used for structured recitation, quiet contemplation, or as a private devotional tool, it is designed to support long-term practice with both durability and energetic integrity.
