Tibetan Red Sponge Coral Wrist Mala Bracelet w Silver Kali Charm

From Modern Tibet for Blanco's Beads, this is a red sponge coral wrist mala strung on silk cord. It closes with a macrame slip knot making it truly one size. It has an antique Indian charm with the figure of Kali on it. Kali Kali (Sanskrit: काली), is the Hindu goddess associated with eternal energy. The name Kali means "black". Kali is today considered the goddess of time and change. Although sometimes presented as dark and violent, her earliest incarnation as a figure of annihilation still has some influence. More complex Tantric beliefs sometimes extend her role so far as to be the "ultimate reality" or Brahman. She is also revered as Bhavatarini (literally "redeemer of the universe"). Comparatively recent devotional movements largely conceive Kali as a benevolent mother goddess. (Wikipedia). She is said to unleash your fierce yet compassionate nature. Coral is classically warn to warm the blood. Coral symbolizes life and blood force energy. It is also used as an aid to depression, lethargy. Given the juxtaposition of Kali and coral - this is a mala with tremendous energy!
