About Us
Maha Mala is a unique spiritual jewellery brand based out of New Delhi, India.. In hindi, Maha Mala means ‘Great Necklace’. Our company specializes in making 108 bead japa Malas (prayer necklaces) in semi precious stones, traditional seeds and silver. Each mala is made with particular gem stones stones keeping in mind their properties and how they enhance each other. All malas are made after extensive research and are thought of, keeping in mind the vibrational energy and properties of the gemstones used. Gemstones, and metals have their own crystalline structure which emanate particular energies. These crystals are also transducers and they resonate electromagnetic energies at their own frequencies. Human beings are also sensitive enough to feel many different energies once we come into contact with these crystals. Many crystals have the ability to amplify certain energies and human are able to absorb them and have a certain kind of experience. This whole process can be widely used in healing or igniting certain emotions of the body.
Maha Mala is an ethical company that supports traditional Indian craftsmanship and has revived an old and traditional product of japa malas that have been used for chanting and meditation in India for centuries. The ranges vary from simple singular stone malas to a complex design of stones that aid in healing and balancing our emotions along with omitting positive vibrations for the body mind and soul.
Maha Mala is the only mala company which uses Ahimsa silk tassels to finish their malas.
Along with this process, we also promote many sustainable practices through the creation of our products. Our silk tassels are dyed in natural and chemical free colours for a healthier lifestyle choice. Each mala is packed in a pouch made from organic cotton fabric sourced from Magan Sangrahlaya Samiti, a weavers’ association that works on the sattvic principles set by Mahatma Gandhi. This fabric is then stitched into beautiful hand stitched pouches by the women of Sewing New Futures which is an NGO that rescues women from sex trafficking trade and helps them develop vocational skills.
Maha Mala is owned and run by Piya Jain who hails from a family that has been in the business of heritage jewellery for many generations. She grew up around precious gems and metals and has a keen interest and love for gemstones from a very young age. Piya has found a beautiful outlet to practice her creative skills and merge them with the science of gem therapy and has a masters’ degree in Economy and Management in Luxury goods from Paris, France.
Piya’s inherited knowledge of Gemstones and her Masters degree in luxury goods has lead her to create one of a kind japa malas which besides being luxurious, also aid in one’s spiritual growth.
