Counting with Dorje and Bell When counting very large numbers of mantra recitations, it is helpful to have some additional counters attached to your malas. One of the strings has the dorje at the end, and the other the bell. Where these strings are placed on the mala is totally up to you. Tibetans usually have theirs after the 6th bead on either side of the guru bead, but that is for no special reason and you can put them wherever you like.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe use the dorje counter to keep count of each circuit of 100 that we make on the mala. So each time you finish one circuit, you will pull forward one bead on the dorje counter to the top of the counter. After 10 circuits of the mala, you will have moved all 10 beads on your dorje counter, and you will have recited 1000 mantras. After that, you will move one bead forward to the top on the bell counter, to symbolize 1000 mantras counted. Then you begin again with a new circuit on your mala, and once you have made a new circuit, you move one of the dorje counter beads forward, and continue like this. With a dorje and bell counter, you can count up to 10,000 mantra recitations.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e❤ABOUT GANDHANRA\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe're artisans from Hepo Township, Baiyu County,Tibetan.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe use ancient Tibetan handicrafts to make Tibetan Buddhist instruments.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAll our crafts are directly handmade from Tibet.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhen you purchase this craft it helps and support our artisan and our families in Tibet.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYour support is highly appreciated.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e❤Packaging \u0026amp;Shipping:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAs per our Product nature, we do the packaging.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor every single product, we do the bubble wrapping along with the paper carton boxes is also used for more safety.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn the case of heavy products, we also use wooden boxes too for more safe packaging and sent for the shipping process.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e❤Feedback:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOur goal is to make sure my customer is happy and satisfied when you shopping with us.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease contact or email before leaving negative feedback.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe will try out best to solve our issues.
