Lotus seed represents purity and the 108 Bead Lotus Seed Malas are used by His Holiness The Dalai Lama.

Lotus Seed Mala - White 108 Prayer Beads is the mala used by His Holiness The Dalai Lama, as lotus seed represents purity.

Mala's have been used for centuries to count one's breath and/or prayers during meditation.  When one absentmindedly touches the mala throughout the day, it is a reminder to come back to the breath, to be aware, to be here now.  The mala dangles into eyesight, another awakening, another gentle nudge into mindfulness.
