About Mountain Snows Buddhist Prayer Beads

One day, while reading a biography of His Holiness the 13th Dala Lama, I turned to the pages of his sermons on the Great Prayer Festivals. Reading his words was a delightful experience! Enjoying each new discovery and insight, I came upon his thoughts concerning the creation, acquisition and use of dharma items. His Holiness advised that these objects be produced with pure motive, and that artisans instill in their work a pure desire to bring benefit to others. I was instantly inspired by this counsel, and over the course of the next few weeks that inspiration blossomed into the creation of MOUNTAIN SNOWS.

MOUNTAIN SNOWS offers hand crafted MALAS for your meditation practice. These prayer beads, created in a joyful setting, are an expression of thoughtful artistry. Great care is taken to produce an exquisite dharma object, pleasing to the eye and pleasant to the touch. It is our sincere wish that they benefit the overall experience of your meditation practice.

The materials used in creating your MALA are of high quality, strength and durability. Shipping and packaging materials are environmentally friendly, or “green”!

In his remarks, His Holiness was kind enough to mention that an artisan be able to make a “reasonable living”. With this in mind a sincere effort has been made to offer you a sensible price. While we think you will be completely delighted with the MALA we make for you, we encourage you to shop around. Take into consideration all the relevant factors in order to choose the right MALA for you.
