8. Mala
Malas help when you’re trying to count repetitions of mantras during meditation.
You turn each bead in between your middle finger and thumb and repeat your
mantra once on each bead. When you reach the guru bead, pause, and take that as
an opportunity to honor your guru or yourself for taking the time to meditate.
9. “Meditation is a process of lightening up, of trusting the basic goodness of what we
have and who we are, and of realizing that any wisdom that exists, exists in what
we already have. We can lead our life so as to become more awake to who we are
and what we’re doing rather than trying to improve or change or get rid of who we
are or what we’re doing. The key is to wake up, to become more alert, more
inquisitive and curious about ourselves.”
–Pema Chodron
