Quizás hayas oído hablar de los japa malas en alguna clase de yoga o meditación. Hoy les comento qué es un japa mala y para qué se usa.
Un japa mala es un collar que consiste en 108 cuentas
esféricas más 1 cuenta gurú. La mayoría de estos collares llevan una borla o pompón,
aunque también es común verlos con colgantes de cuarzo.
You may have heard about japa malas in yoga classes or meditation. Today I tell you what a japa mala is and what it is used for.
A japa mala is a necklace consisting of 108 spherical beads plus 1 guru bead. Most of these necklaces have a tassel, although it is also common to see them with quartz pendants.
"A Japamala or mala is a string of prayer beads commonly used
by Hindus, Buddhists, Jains and some Sikhs for the spiritual practice known in Sanskrit as japa.

Los collares japa mala se utilizan para meditar, para recitar
mantras o palabras de poder y afirmaciones. Cada vez que hacemos una repetición
avanzamos una bolita del collar, continuamos así hasta llegar a la bolita 108.
Aquí podría terminar la meditación o podríamos continuar las veces que
queramos girando el collar y comenzando de nuevo una nueva vuelta de collar.
Japa Mala necklaces are used to meditate, to recite mantras or words of power and affirmations. Each time we make a repetition we advance a bead of the necklace, continue this way until reaching the 108 bead. Here we could finish the meditation or we could continue the repetitions that we want turning the necklace and beginning again a new count of necklace.

Aunque en un sentido práctico la
meditación es el uso que se da a los japa malas, también es cierto que no es su
único uso. Incluso como complemento
te beneficiarás al usar esta joyería que considero especial y Divina.
Although in a practical sense meditation is the use that is given to a japa mala, it is also true that it is not its unique use. Even as accesory, you will benefit from wearing this jewelry that I consider sacred and Divine.

Particularmente me gusta crear japa malas que combinen
distintos tipos de cuarzos, maderas y semillas. También diferentes colores para
hacer una terapia cromática. Cada japa mala está cargado con una intención
desde el momento en que lo diseño, bien a petición de la persona que lo ha
solicitado o siguiendo mi propia intuición para trabajar algo en particular. Así consigo un diseño final que está cargado de vibraciones positivas! :) Son
muchos los beneficios, el poder y la sanación que aportan los minerales, la
madera santa, las semillas y los cuarzos.
I especially like to create japa malas that combine different types of quartz, woods and seeds. Also different colors for a chromatic therapy. Every japa mala is charged with an intention from the moment I design it,
either it was a particular request of the person who buy it or following my own
intuition to work something in particular. So I get a final design that is full of positive vibes! :) There are many benefits, power and healing provided by minerals, holy wood, seeds and quartz.
Los colores
y materiales darán la intención al collar japa mala. Pueden estar
vinculados con alguno de los chakras (o con varios) o también trabajar algo en
particular que deseemos potenciar en nosotros mismos. Las posibilidades son
infinitas, por eso cada collar aunque sea parecido a otro, siempre será único.
The colors and materials will give the intention to the mala necklace. They can be related with particular chakras (or with more than one) or also work something in particular that we want to strengthen in ourselves. The possibilities are endless, so each necklace will always be unique.

According to the Sanskrit-English dictionary of Monier-Williams, japa means 'to murmur prayers, to repeat in whispering passages of sacred writings, incantations, or names of a divinity', while 'mālā' translates as 'garland'.." Wikipedia
