prayer beads



 I know many religions utlize some type of prayer bead or rosary or mala
whatever term one would prefer. I am inquiring as to the use and
significance in the Hindu religion.  

I do Know that the earliest known rosaries are found within the Cult of
Shiva and were garlands of flowers. but have little other knowledge. I
would definitely be interested in expanding my knowledge of this subject it
someone would like to explain. I can be reached through email.
