This teak mala is beautiful and feels very special. They say the wood is reclaimed from temples and I really get that vibe from the beads sometimes when I’m meditating. I like that it is really a type of mala used by monks and not one of those costume jewelry looking things made out of shiny rocks no monk would ever use. Very good quality.

I ordered my Mala because I wanted something to help relax and control stress. I didn’t realize how much it would work. I carry it everywhere and whenever I feel, it’s there. I count the beads, breath and sometimes ask for help from God. I feel so much better and can’t imagine how I lived with out one. Thank you

Perfect Mala

High quality and heavier mala. Great for meditation. The extra touch of having all beads blessed by monks makes these unique.

It took a while to get to me, but it’s great. The 12mm beads are easier for my fingers to manipulate than the 8mm beads on other mala’s I’ve purchased elsewhere. I don’t wear the mala, I just keep it in my altar and use it during meditation. The quality is fantastic though and you can tell it’s handmade and not mass produced by a machine.
If I’m ever in the market for another mala, I’ll buy from Monk Mala again, for sure.
