The lotus is known as a metaphor for our own growth, as it blooms beautifully even in the most unlikely and diffcult environments. This mala is made from lotus seeds and is imported from Nepal. It is believed to promote spiritual and material prosperity and has been associated with reducing pitta imbalances. The oval seeds of the lotus are a smooth matte brown color known for their cooling effects. Good for the first Chakra. Strung and knotted on cotton cord. 108 count.
