The mala, trengwa, in Tibetan is the Buddhist rosary, the object whose
monk (or even the lay practitioner) almost never separates, holding him to the
hand or wraps around the wrist.
The mala is first of all a utilitarian object: it serves as a tactile support for the
recitation of mantras, at the same time as it is used to count them if one
has set himself the task of repeating a definite number of them.
The different components contain
each a symbolic meaning specify: The large pearl (or head of
Buddha) which closes the circle represents the knowledge of emptiness.
The small cone above it is the mark of emptiness itself.
