$183.00 USD

A 108-Bead Bracelet for Shingon Sect Practice

This bracelet uses 108 Dushan jade beads. Since ancient times, it has been said that humans hold 108 earthly desires. A formal prayer-bead strand has exactly 108 beads, each representing a Buddha who governs one of these 108 desires — carrying the belief that the strand receives and cleanses all of humanity's earthly desires. It serves both as a tool for counting sutra recitations and as a talisman for protection.

To make the protective role of prayer beads part of everyday life, we have crafted this into a 108-bead bracelet for Shingon sect practice.

Dushan jade has a smooth, glossy texture and has long been treasured in China as a fine gemstone. Its calm coloring makes it suitable for any occasion, and it is said to bring relaxation and peace to body and mind.
