$125.00 USD

We will introduce general prayer beads for Jodo Shinshu.


In Jodo Shinshu, many monks recommend single-stranded one-handed prayer beads like this one.
Therefore, many parishioners use one-handed prayer beads with string tassels.

Of course, you can use the formal Jodo Shinshu prayer beads, but we recommend that you ask the temple which prayer beads are best for you before purchasing.

We have made a string tassel prayer beads using sandalwood, a standard wooden prayer beads.


Sandalwood with beautiful grain.
It has a soft texture that makes you feel the warmth of the wood.
We used blue tiger's eye for the parent bead (the largest bead on top of the tassel) and the heavenly beads (the two small beads).

Blue tiger's eye has a different color than yellow tiger's eye, so it is popular with people looking for tiger's eye with a slightly unusual color.
Also, blue tiger's eye is also known as hawk's eye,
and is believed to improve visibility, so it is very popular among middle-aged and elderly working men.

The beads are shiny and have beautiful colors, so they will make the wearer look elegant.

The light pattern is constantly changing, so you will never get bored of looking at it.
Also, tiger's eye is believed to bring good fortune, so it is very popular among middle-aged and elderly working men.
It is also a recommended item as a rosary for daily use.
