A Mala break can feel like a sad moment, however it always symbolises a new beginning and may indicate the release of a pattern, or fulfilment of your intention. The positive outcome, once re-threaded is the setting of a new spiritual intention to continue your path forward. There is nothing wrong.
If you don't like the idea of your mala breaking keep an eye on the thread between the beads, when it frays it's time to have it repaired (usually after two-three years of constant wear). Please remember, that even when the thread needs to be re-done your Mala will, and is meant to last a lifetime. Re-threading is a normal part of maintaining a spiritual malas long life. Our AAA+ Grade crystals and pure Rudraksha are something to treasure and have been passed down through generations.
Most breaks within the first year happen when your mala gets caught, children or animals find it appealing (more often than you may believe or even notice) or it regularly gets wet (showers, swims, sweat). Taking care of you Mala as an honoured item and re-threading every few years is a wonderful way to enhance its energy.
Re-threading involves removing each bead out from its knots and re-knotting the whole mala, ensuring the pattern is laid out correctly. We also make a new tassel if that's part of your original mala. We subsidise the coast by shipping items to India together,, so the process usually costs you $75 plus return post, within Australia. In the case of lost beads, there is an extra charge.
Your patience is required through the process, of three to four months. There is no need to check in, as we always keep a record and ensure your mala is returned in excellent condition. Please complete the order, once received, as soon as possible so we can keep a track your repair order.
