In the Vedic tradition, a rosary made of White Sandalwood, known as "Chandan mala", is highly revered for its cooling and soothing properties. White Sandalwood or Chandan has been used for millennia in various Hindu rituals due to its aromatic nature and its spiritual significance.

Here is how the Chandan mala is typically utilized in Vedic practices:
  1. Worship of Lord Vishnu: Sandalwood, with its cooling properties, is associated with Lord Vishnu, the preserver of the universe. The Chandan mala is often used for chanting mantras dedicated to Lord Vishnu to seek his blessings for peace, prosperity, and protection.
  2. Meditation: The inherent calming properties of White Sandalwood make the Chandan mala an excellent tool for meditation. Those looking to achieve a peaceful and focused mind during their meditation sessions often prefer this mala.
  3. Chanting Mantras for Peace: Chandan mala is especially suitable for reciting mantras that aim to invoke peace, calmness, and tranquility. Its cooling nature aligns with the vibrations of peace-centric mantras, amplifying their effects.
  4. Worship of Healing Deities: Given the medicinal and healing properties of sandalwood, the Chandan mala can also be used in prayers and rituals dedicated to deities associated with healing and well-being.
  5. Worship of Goddess Lakshmi: Apart from Lord Vishnu, Chandan mala is also used in rituals and prayers dedicated to Goddess Lakshmi, the deity of wealth and prosperity. The aromatic nature of sandalwood is believed to please the goddess, invoking her blessings.
  6. General Spiritual Practices: The Chandan mala is versatile and can be used for various other spiritual practices, including morning prayers, recitation of scriptures, and other mantra japas. Its serene nature is believed to help elevate the spiritual experience.

The cooling and therapeutic properties of White Sandalwood are mirrored in the spiritual practices associated with the Chandan mala.

When used with reverence and purpose, a white sandalwood rosary is believed to enhance one's spiritual connectivity, bring about mental peace, and elevate the potency of the prayers. As with any sacred tool, it is beneficial to consult with knowledgeable individuals or spiritual guides within the Vedic tradition to understand its appropriate and effective use.

    Vedic Culture, which   is the culture of the original Himalayan Masters,    is one of the most advanced ancient civilizations.  It is a tradition which has given mankind several treasures such Yoga, Meditation, Conscious-Living and Vedic Sciences such as Ayurveda, Vedic Physics & Vedic Mathematics.

    It was always a scientific culture that understood the very mechanics and workings of this Universe. Their deities, their gods and goddesses were all a way of expressing and explaining these energies and their inter-working. Modern Quantum Mechanics is just starting to understand string theory, dark matter etc. which have all been fundamental to the Vedic understanding. Because of this, they developed ways and methods which allowed one to best tap into life-energy itself.

    Vedic Culture, as it was practiced by the Himalayan Masters, was always a "way of life" and not a religion.

    Their basic view was that, there is only ONE Supreme God-head (God as our creator) and each one of us can find our path to it- experience union with that divinity (Yoga) in their own way.

    Because of this, anyone with any religious affiliations and beliefs can still benefit from their knowledgeable ways of Vedic Wisdom.

    Our attempt here is to present this ancient wisdom in a modern light, so our readers can interpret the true, essential meaning more easily and then extrapolate it to their own specific scenarios and enhance the quality of their life and being-ness.
