The recitation and accumulation of Buddhist mantras is one of the most common practices in Tibetan Buddhism. In the pursuit of enlightenment, some traditions require the recitation of hundreds of thousands, or even millions of mantras in order to access the characteristics and qualities of certain deities.

This set of two metal mala counters, each with ten small rings or beads, are a convenient way to keep track of mantra recitations and counts. Featuring traditional bell and vajra charms (symbolising the divine energies of wisdom and compassion) on sturdy cotton cord with traditional five-colour tassels on the ends, these mala counters can be placed anywhere on your mala or even used separately.
