So a saint gave me a blessed mala beads (Rudraksha) and told me that it was passed down to him by another well respected saint/occultist. However like literally now I checked it, the beads count to 104 + 1 (Meru Bead) and it's not 108!
Initially, it pissed me off because I literally paid this guy for it. F*ing LOT! :?
Well I inquired and found out that it's not compulsive for a mala to be 108, and I was like... yeah.. okay.. :roll:
Later I reminded how HP Cobra/Mageson & also comrade Lydia have told to avoid 108 reps and go for other numbers. So I just wanted to ask if this mala should be used or what is the significance of a 104 + 1 mala beads?
Also, now that I'm writing, what about this + 1 bead? Can we count it as well in reps or not?
Is 104 a good occult number, or 105 (+1, if counts in)
Please help me with this!
Also, If anyone knows, is this related to any square number (total reps, eg: 111 sun; that's all I know lol)
Thank you, and a happy new year!
