But, that is not what the fictional story says. The fictional story is in authority with regards to the fictional characters contained in it. So, if the Bible says that Jesus was a Jew, then Jesus was a Jew. Changing the story is almost as silly as believing in it.

About Malas The meaning of the Sanskrit word "Mala" is "garland." The word for Mala in Tibetan is Akshamala. For Buddhist practitioners a mala is considered an essential tool. Below is a brief explanation about Malas, their purpose, meaning, and use. What is a Mala? From a practical and outer point of view, a mala can simply be understood as a method for counting Mantra recitation. However, a Mala can be a great deal more than just a counting beads. Symbology of a Mala On a deeper level, the Mala represents the Form and Speech of the Deity. It can be viewed as the Root Deity and the entire assembly or mandala of that Deity. For example, if you are doing a Chenrezig practice, the large bead on the Mala represents Chenrezig and the other beads represent the entourage of the Deity. In this view, the Mala is a support for one's practice and can become an object of refuge for the practitioner. How to Use a Mala Traditionally one holds the mala in one's left hand. With each recitation a bead is pulled forward. Symbolically, this represents the "Vajra Hook" which brings forth blessings and virtue. The basic instruction is to use the thumb to move the bead forward. Types of Malas A variety of materials may be used to make a mala: wood or metal beads, seeds, raksha beads (the dried fruit of the raksha tree), as well as precious gemstones or jewels.
