Guest guest Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Namaste Marsha: The Mandir does not sell Malas, but, if you are able to come, ask Maa for a mala. She has given them to those who ask. Typically prior to giving a mala to a devotee, She has offered it to Her Shiva lingum on Her altar. In the meantime, suggest buying one, and prior to use, soak it in milk, and then rise it off in clean water, and put sandlewood oil on it. I would also offer it during puja, to Shiva or Maa's picture, and ask Maa and / or Shiva to bless it. A mala is a sacred tool. There are wonderful verses we chant in the beginning of every puja, thanking our mala, and blessing it. Use those when you obtain a new mala, and every day, every time, while performing puja.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Namaste Vishweshwar, Thank you! …. I will order a mala and follow your instructions and then bring it with me when I visit! How long do I soak it ~ overnight? What are the guidelines for arranging a visit? I want to wait until Shree Maa and Swamiji have returned.
