DIFFERENT KINS FO
MALA AND THEIR TYPES
To be involved in prayers
is considered to be the best way. During the prayer Mala is the
best medium (for the counting of Mantra). Almost in any accomplishment
of the malas repetition of any mantra is necessary. In the accomplishement,
of the desires by the mantras chanting of specific number of mantras
is very important. In that situation mala is the best media for
keeping counting of the mantra. The question arises that why thee
ware 108 beads in a mala?
First of all, we come to know accurately
that how may japs have been done. Secondly, by the touch of finger
and thumb a electric ray is created in the minds which directly
affect the heart veins and by the medium of Vegas Veins, which in
turn helps in concentration of mind. The third thing is that in
the universe the 27 stars are valid. According to Astrology in every
constellation four foot are famous. If we multiply 27 by 4, we get
108. Fourth, the whole universe is divided in 12 parts of Zodiac.
The multiplication of 12 Zodiacs and 9 planets equals 108. So, from
all point of view the best number is 108. The last and fifth reason
is that the total number of breath in day and nights is 10800 (15
times per minute). If the chanting is mainly done, UPANSO then the
effects of it is 100 times greater. In this way it is 108x100 =
10800.
