Prayer Beads

Prayer beads are a string of beads used in Buddhist and other religious practices. They serve as a counting tool for prayers or mantras, helping practitioners keep track of recitations. Materials vary from wood and crystal to pearls, with color and bead size differing across traditions and regions. Some designs feature larger centerpiece beads, while others consist of uniform small beads suited for hand-held use. In Japan, they are commonly seen at memorial services, temple visits and during personal meditation sessions. The emoji design shows a simple strand of beads with a distinctive larger bead at its center. You can use it in messages to convey prayer, meditation or spiritual gatherings.
