Purpleheart Wood Zen 108 Bead Mala | Buddhist Prayer Beads 8mm

Ancient Wood. Sacred Practice.

Carved from one of the world's most extraordinary woods, this Purpleheart Wood 108-bead mala is a meditation tool as rare and beautiful as the practice it supports. Purpleheart is a naturally purple-hued hardwood that deepens to a rich dark chocolate-purple-brown over time — meaning your mala becomes more beautiful the more you use it.

This is a mala built for a lifetime of practice. Each of the 108 beads carries the grounding, heart-centered energy of this deeply spiritual wood.

About the 108 Mala

In yogic and Buddhist traditions, 108 is a sacred number. A full mala of 108 beads is used for japa meditation — counting mantras or breaths one bead at a time, moving through the full circle as a complete practice. The guru bead marks the beginning and end of each round.
