Description [Juzu] Juzu is the Buddhist rosary which has 108 main beads representing 108 worldly sins. People hold the rosaries over their joined hands as they recite invocations. In addition to the 108 Omodama(main beads), there are also Oyadama(big beads) and Tendama(small beads). This is a men's Nichiren Shu bead made of chic uncoated ebony with a black onyx ball with "Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo" engraved. The "Subiki" process is a process to finish the beads only by polishing, without coating, in order to take advantage of the quality of the material. This process is not possible unless the quality of the beads is good, so you can feel the natural texture and feel of the ebony. "Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo" is an important Buddhist motto of Nichiren Shu and Hokke Shu, and is considered to be a source of spiritual comfort. The "Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo" is carefully and meticulously carved into the beautiful black onyx, shining in jet black, so you can always feel the merit close at hand. The tassel is a beautiful and supple Kyoto-made pure silk flower Brahma tassel with an image of a lotus flower. It comes with a tag of Kyoto Bead Manufacturing Wholesalers Association, which only traditional "Kyo-nenju" are allowed to put on. It is a gem tailored by the master craftsman of Kyoto. Black Onyx Onyx is said to have the power to shake off evil thoughts and bad spirits and give us reason. It is also said that Onyx gives us perseverance and strength of will to move forward. Onyx is also called "the symbol of success" and is said to support people to accomplish their goals without giving up. Please note that the photos may vary to some degree from the actual products.
