as very sacred and auspicious. It consists of 108 beads of Tulsi wood in a
string and one additional or 109th bead referred as Sumeru bead.
Sumeru can be a Tulsi bead or of any other crystal or metal. To do a jaap or
mantra chanting one can use this Tulsi mala to increase their concentration
starting from adjacent bead of Sumeru and ending after completing after
