We have prepared wooden prayer beads for the Soto Zen sect!


I'm looking for formal wooden prayer beads, but I can't find anything I like because they look cheap.

This time, I made sandalwood prayer beads with lavender amethyst and accented them with wisteria, a color popular with women.

The sandalwood prayer beads were lacking in some areas of glamour, so
I made them with purple agate to give them a more glamorous look.

Combined with the sandalwood prayer beads, they are a timeless rosary that will never get old.
They never look cheap.

Why not take this opportunity to get some?


About the Soto Zen sect

The shape of the Soto Zen prayer beads is very similar to that of the Rinzai Zen 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.
