Sphatikam Maha Mahaa Ghatikam!

September 29, 2005

Dear Member,

The sphatika, or clear quartz crystal, mala is especially significant for worship of Sri Saraswati Devi and for puja, mantra japa, or meditation.

The divine energy in sphatika beads has healing, uplifting and purifying properties.

It is very important to wear a sphatika mala when attending or performing puja, homa or japa, as the beads help to retain the sacred energy from any spiritual practice.

Wearing a mala of 54 beads is very beneficial, as many of the important energy centers in the body and brain will be stimulated. Sphatika beads prevent one's energy from draining into the Earth, and encourage one's energy to flow upwards towards the sahasrara chakra.

Sphatika beads stimulated one's intelligence and purifies the mind. One's speech will become sweet and kind from wearing a sphatika mala.

Sphatik (snow crystal) is a transparent stone with luster, grace and smoothness.
