A japa mala is a string of 108 beads and one guru bead, used to count the repetitions of a mantra. This collection brings together Pandit.com's rudraksha malas and the other traditional malas, each selected under Pt. Rahul Kaushl.

Which mala for which practice

Mala Traditionally used for
Rudraksha Shiva mantras, Om Namah Shivaya, and daily japa for anyone
Tulsi Vishnu and Krishna mantras
Sphatik (clear quartz) Lakshmi, Saraswati and Chandra mantras; a cool, calm practice
Kamal gatta (lotus seed) Lakshmi mantras
Haldi (turmeric) Baglamukhi and Guru mantras
Red chandan Devi and Mangal mantras
Karungali (ebony) Protection; popular in Tamil tradition

Rudraksha mala

Most rudraksha malas are made of five mukhi beads, which can be worn by anyone and used for any mantra. Bead size is a matter of comfort: smaller beads (about 5 to 7 mm) are lighter for wearing all day, and larger beads (about 7 to 9 mm) are easier to count in japa. For single beads, see the rudraksha guide and 5 mukhi rudraksha.

How to do japa with a mala

  1. Sit facing east or north at the same time each day.
  2. Hold the mala in the right hand, over the middle finger, and move one bead with the thumb for each mantra.
  3. Do not cross the guru bead; at the end of a round, turn the mala and continue.
  4. Keep your japa mala for practice, cover it when not in use, and do not let others use it.

Frequently asked questions

Why does a mala have 108 beads?

One round of 108 is the traditional count for japa. The extra bead, the guru bead, marks the start and end of a round and is not crossed.

Which mala is best for daily japa?

A five mukhi rudraksha mala is the most widely used and suits any mantra. Tulsi is chosen for Vishnu and Krishna, and sphatik for Lakshmi.

Can I wear my japa mala?

Many people wear their mala during the day. Some keep a separate mala only for japa; follow your guru or family tradition.

How do I care for a rudraksha mala?

Keep it away from soap and chemicals, rinse it in clean water now and then, and oil it lightly every few months.

What bead size should I choose?

Beads of about 5 to 7 mm are lighter for daily wear; beads of about 7 to 9 mm are easier to feel and count in japa.
