350 - Prayer Beads / Mala Beads

[TheDaggmaster]

Charmingpixiflora, I have a very Sacred meaningful set of Roseary beads my husband of 20 yrs, bought me 10 yrs ago. I have done over the 10 yrs plenty of Hail Marys ,.well now without complete abandonement I am a full blown witch,.I have no judgement of the hail mary prayers as I have had wonderful results over the yrs learning now my own manifestation being a huge reason, but would it be disrespectful to try use these beads for my beautiful pagan prayers? Anyone?

[silver14goddess]

@TheDaggmaster I don't see anything wrong with that! If you feel rather guilty about it, just meditate while holding the rosary in your hands - search around for an answer from deep within yourself, think of what Jesus may think about you using it for. If that doesn't work, you should watch the documentary on here called The Hidden Jesus. :D

[WitchontheRocks]

You are always so inspiring Flora. I've never worked with the beads before but I'm definitely going to now. Thanks for posting this :)

wow, i learned 2 things today, 1: that i dont have to say the entire prayer "Om Mahalakshmyai cha vidmahe, Vishnu patnyai cha dhimahi, Tanno Lakshmihi prachodayat"; and 2: that i have mala beads lol i got this bracelet from my friend, and i now learned that theyre actually mala beads lol thanks :) this has been helpful :D

[btw: the prayer is for lakshmi to help in acquiring wealth, status, greatness, and fame. but i might say the prayer the way its supposed to be]

[HopeAngel777]

thanks for posting this vid! i have been trying to make mala beads for Bast, but i have had no idea where to start as i have lost my only pagan prayer bead book, so this all works out :)

Such a great video! Quite a few months ago I discovered my pull towards Ganesh and Green Tara which sparked an interest in prayer beads. I've been saying the mantras in Sanskrit, but as you said, they sound beautiful, but there's no meaning in them for me. Thanks for making feel okay about saying my own words. This video means a lot to me because I'm having trouble incorporating Ganesh & Green Tara into my Wiccan practice. I don't want to disrespect the Hindu or Buddhist community. Thanks!

"Namaste" sweet spirit Pixie Flora. love the video - you make learning experiences fun.

[LovesToCamp35]

I know exactly what you mean about getting back into that energy shift. I went a couple of weeks without saying my affirmations, because I was on break and got too lazy, so once I got back to school it was just insanely stressful. I got back into my routine, and exactly like you said, the next day I felt immensely better. :)

Also I have to agree about fighting against the Universe or going against the grain is Useless period. You need to rely on the Universe..requires faith alot of it!

[Empressgoth]

Very different..nice statues in the back..are you dealing more with these particular dieties? Also enjoyed the video!

[JimbleInWonderland]

[Nyphredila]

[MrRickySmith90]

[CharmingPixieFlora]

@MrRickySmith90 I have an online store from my website now. Check out the information under the video. : )

[MrRickySmith90]

@CharmingPixieFlora Oh, Thanks Flora. Blessed be! ^_^

[puck0428]

This was awesome! YAY! Funny story: friend took my mala bead bracelet because he thought it was cute. He didn't know I prayed to Ganesh every day with it. He wore it one day and scored his job interview and found $20 all in the same day!

[sandrasenergy]

Great video. I look so forward to all you post. I am going out to get some mala beads. I have had a call for almost a year to use them and not sure how to. Now it is all fitting into place. Thank you so much.

Love and Light!

[lotacarolina]

I tried reading rosary once. As I didn't know the entire rosary (before getting page with all the prays), I said Hail Mary for each bead. One day at bus I suddenly got so bad feeling about it I stopped immediatly. I haven't read them since. What do you think it might of mean? I love prayer beads and have different kinds at home, but I don't feel home with them at all.

[Moonlah]

I craft prayer beads :) They are a wonderful tool.

[Severinawitchy1]

Showing my ignorance here - do you say the same thing for each bead?

[CharmingPixieFlora]

@Severinawitchy1 Yes, if you want to, or you can say something different for each bead. Go with what feels right for you. : )

[eyeblazer]

Thank you for posting videos, I really like how you explain things because sometimes when I read or hear them from others it sounds like such a difficult thing but once I see a video that you've posted on the subject I think oh that is what they meant.

Love and Light.

[Bastet674]

my afirmation goes like this. "i am in the devine vibration of the univers i come on love and trust and for the good of all."

[Kiarnis]

What a pretty altar behind you! ^-^ Is that your meditation one? =o

[NicholeinTexas]

I love all your videos!

[BookyMoon89]

That you so much! I was wondering how people used beads like this.

[TheWiccanJunction]

Thanks for sharing.Good information.I use Rudraksha beads for chants.

[ballerinaboy1]

Thank you! Im excited to try this!

[TheKuma72]

This is why I love your videos! Everything around us is in a constant state of flux. We all need to allow ourselves to change. When we lock ourselves into a predetermined routine of life or worship we become stagnant and out of touch with life and the world around us. I guess that's why eclectic spirituality feels more comfortable to me. I have always gravitated away from organized religion, it doesn't allow for critical thinking or the opened mind. Thank you for sharing your opinion!

[megdesrochers]

This was very educational, thank you! I'm going to think more about this and what mala beads can do for my own practice :)

[SolitaryWitchTracks]

Love mala beads!

[WitchontheRocks]

Girl, you look great in this video! Not that you don't in all of them but you look especially good here :)

[addynicole1031]

So happy to see this video from you, yesterday I was hoping you would post soon! Peace and blessings to you! Thank you for all you do :)

[tashaluvsyou]

@10:10.....where the mind goes the behind follows. :-)  love ya sis

[DreamingHousewife]

Thank you for this video!!

[PriestessofAthena]

Also Taoist use mala beads as well to represent the 108 sacred stars.

[eliask93]

I have a necklace the I made out of woven strings and four elemental beads. Would that work in the same way?

[Mirkwood90]

Don't forget about about cord knots for rosaries and prayer beads,

My favorite prayer beads are made of cord.

I originally mad it as a rosary, but I grew up protestant so crucifixes still weird me out.

Mine has 35 knots and four our fathers (made out of the broken cords from old necklaces)

Awesome video btw!

peace be with you,

Evan

[CharmingPixieFlora]

@cieniolubek Thanks! They are fake.  I got them at Hobby Lobby about a year ago. They have them in lots of different colors.

[themagickalchalice]

My favourite affirmation:

"My existence is life saving"

Meaning: if you didn't exist, you would be stoping thousands of life's from living (think about it...;D)

What it's done for me...: Stoped me from suicide...now I love each and everyday:D xx

[ScarletRiley]

Very inspiring! This has been something I wanted to try but never actually looked into it enough. I can't wait to make my own! Thank you so much for the awesome video! <3

[DemonicSymphonic]

Hot

[cieniolubek]

those lotus flowers on the altar are stunning, are they real or artificial?

[ForSunny2]

[camf53]
