Clear Mountain Mala Request

To receive one of Clear Mountain’s malas, made from locally-sourced Montana agate and other beads blessed by senior teachers in Thailand and the community during pilgrimage to the Bodhi Tree, fill out the form below. The malas, sponsored by several anonymous donors to the Clear Mountain Book & Mala Fund, and strung or finished by the local community, are freely given and shipping covered from an existing reserve, though if you wish to contribute towards future postage costs, you may do so here. As international mailing costs average approximately $15 per mala, we ask those requesting from outside the US consider contributing if they are able (though if you lack the resources to donate, don’t worry! We still want you to have a mala). If the mala doesn’t fit, or you decide you’d like a different size, you may return it via mail and make a new mala request, noting it as an exchange. Please allow at least one month for shipping, and note that beads are not entirely colorfast, but soaking them for 5 minutes in 1 cup of water mixed with 1/5 a cup of salt should help fix the color. If you live in Seattle, you may simply request one at a Saturday gathering. If the beads’ color begins to fade with repeated use, please feel to email malas@friendsofclearmountain.org for instructions on where to mail them for restringing with more colorfast beads, though you may also simply have them restrung locally while keeping the blessed agate beads.  We do ask that you treat the malas with respect, and when setting them down, consider doing so in a high place, preferably a shrine. 

You may use the mala for Recitations of Refuge, in your own practice, or simply as an article of faith. For a detailed description of how to use a mala in practice, see the video, Mālas in Daily Life. We do ask that, before requesting, you join Clear Mountain’s community by attending at least three events, in-person or online, and that each person only request one mala. Additionally, we hope you'll continue to follow the monastery's growth through the newsletter and other means. You may email Bonnie, our wonderful "mala managers", at malas@friendsofclearmountain.org with any questions. Thank you!

May all beings be well!

...and just to review a few minor points : )

I understand that, as the supply of malas is limited, each person may receive just one, and those receiving should have joined Clear Mountain's community by attending at least three events (online is alright too!). Please allow at least one month for shipping, and note that mala beads are not entirely colorfast, but soaking them for 5 minutes in 1 cup of water mixed with 1/5 a cup of salt should help fix the color. If the mala doesn’t fit, or you decide you’d like a different size, you may return it via mail and make a new mala request, noting it as an exchange. If you live in Seattle, you may simply request one at a Saturday gathering. If the beads’ color begins to fade with repeated use, please feel to email malas@friendsofclearmountain.org for instructions on where to mail them for restringing with more colorfast beads, though you may also simply have them restrung locally while keeping the blessed agate beads. We do ask that you treat the malas with respect, and when setting them down, consider doing so in a high place, preferably a shrine. Sadhu!
