Guest guest Posted January 21, 2004 Report Share Posted January 21, 2004 Om Namha Sivaya Thanks to both of you for the reply. I really appreciate. Last night I washed my mala in warm water and brushed them a bit. After patting them with a cloth, I dipped them in Mustard Oil overnight. I actually also tried olive oil but it was giving a stale smell, so I preffered mustard oil instead. In the morning, I wipped them with tissue and them came up quite good. They were looking very beautiful and clean. I smelled the oil which I used, it was smelling different, the beads had left their smell in the same. I applied the same on my throat, as it was little soar, in seconds I was quite relaxed. So, I think it is a good idea not to throw the oil rather apply the same on body before bath. Thanks once again.

You will probably find that cleaning, oiling, and scenting your beads regularly is a very pleasurable meditation, and a wonderful way to "build a relationship" with your mala. , Sundeep Babbar <sundeep_babbar> wrote: > Dear Rajeswara Jee, > > Thanks for the reply, I really appreciate.

Ever since, everyday I pray My Lord Shiva "Om Namah Shivaya" 11 times during my everyday prayers, except for mondays where I repeat the above 108 times. Where I went wrong was, not saying Beeja Mantra for atleast 9 times a day, which also I have taken care of by chanting 108 times for all mukhis in my mala, since last 2 days. This completes the recommended cycle of 40 days i.e. 40 x 9 = 360 jaapa/ each, though it took me 44 days.

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2004 Report Share Posted January 21, 2004 Both oils are GREAT for the skin, AND for the beads! I just depends on personal preference, which oil you use.
