Buddha Prayer Beads, Buddha Chitta Mala From The Himalayas

The Buddha Chitta bead is one of the most revered sacred seeds in Tibetan Buddhism. Harvested from the highlands of Timal, Nepal, these beads are rare and deeply spiritual, carrying the essence of compassion, mindfulness, and awakening. They are often called the “hearts of the Buddha” because of their association with purity of thought and the path to enlightenment. These beads are also called Bodhichitta, Tenwa, Shuzhu, Phrengba / Thengamala, Buddha prayers beads, Phoenix Eye etc.

In Vajrayana tradition, Buddha Chitta malas are used by monks, lamas, and practitioners for mantra recitation, meditation, and prayer rituals. Wearing or chanting with these beads is believed to:
- Deepen concentration and mindfulness during meditation
- Support compassion, patience, and wisdom in daily life
- Protect against negative aura and distractions
- Strengthen karmic balance and spiritual growth
