Green Jade Mala with Ganesha (108 Beads on Knotted Thread) – 8MM

Green jade is a beautiful and sacred gemstone that emanates a divine vibration of peace, love and abundance. In the presence of green jade, the heart and mind naturally attain a state of balance, the intellect becomes more powerful and refined, and you begin to open to a divine experience of true abundance and prosperity. Whether held in the hand or worn next to the skin, green jade cleanses, heals and gently opens the heart chakra to unconditional love, divine peace, and heartfelt joy. Green jade also attracts the beneficial energy of Mercury for excellent discrimination and a positive attitude. Japa malas, or "prayer beads," consist of 108 beads held together by a sacred thread, along with a "guru" bead which is attached to the tassel. The beads represent your individual mantras or prayers, the thread represents your unbroken state of concentration, and the guru bead reminds you of the divine grace that gently removes all your blockages and limitations as you strive to move forward on the spiritual path. This mala also features a beautiful carved Ganesha as a pendant. Sri Ganesha is like a loving and wise elder brother, who's always there to give excellent advice and help you deal with the obstacles in your path. Though he has great mystic power, those who are able to tune into the special vibration of Sri Ganesha find that he can be very sweet, adorable and playful. Although this mala has 108 beads and can be used for mantra japa, you may prefer to wear it around the neck as a sacred necklace. The gemstone beads will attract cosmic energy and transmit that energy into your body and aura. The 108 beads in the mala will purify and energize the 108 main energy centers in the subtle body, filling them with divine nectar and helping you to achieve a refined and elevated state. Wearing a mala during any sacred activity, like a puja, homa or meditation, will allow you to attract and retain the divine vibrations of that activity to a very high degree. Whether used for japa or worn as a sacred necklace, this green jade mala will help you to gently release the fears that hold you back, and will help you to connect with your own inner source of joy and love. The more mantras and prayers you recite with this lovely green jade mala, the more divine energy you will attract into your life for peace, love and divine abundance and prosperity.
