This Tibetan-style mantra counter is an essential tool for those practicing Vajrayana Buddhism and dedicated to the accumulation of mantras or prayers. This counter comes in a pair, with each strand featuring 10 beads, and is often attached to a full-length mala at either the 21st or 27th bead on either side of the guru bead. The vajra end of the counter is used to track the accumulation of 100 mantras, while the bell end tracks 1000s.

Symbolism & Meaning

In Vajrayana practices, maintaining an accurate count of mantra recitation is crucial for spiritual discipline and progress. The vajra, symbolizing indestructibility and the wisdom of a Buddha, is used to track smaller accumulations (100s), while the bell represents the sound of awakening and is used for larger accumulations (1000s). These counters serve as a physical reminder of one’s commitment to accumulating mantras, fostering mindfulness and perseverance in practice.
