★About the Soto Zen sect

The shape of the prayer beads of the Soto Zen sect is very similar to that of the Rinzai sect, but a distinctive feature of the Soto Zen sect is that the prayer beads have metal rings running through them.
It is unclear why it is included, but one theory is that the ring represents Bodhidharma.
