The Gayatri Gomukhi Japa Mala Bag is recommended for using while chanting Mantras on Rosary/Japamala. The Gomukhi Japa Mala is made in the shape of Cow's mouth(Go means Cow and mukhi means mouth).

Benefits of Gayatri Gomukhi Japa Mala Bag 

There are many advantages of using the Gomukhi Japa Mala Bag. The bag protects the Japa mala from dust and dirt. The process of chanting on your Japa mala is hidden from curious eyes, especially if you are chanting while travelling. As the pointer finger or Tarjani is not used while chanting on the Japa mala, there is a small outlet(hole) in the Gomukhi Japa Mala bag, from which the finger is placed out of the bag, which ensures that it does not touch the beads. Wearing the Gomukhi Japa Mala bag around the neck while chanting on your Mala, when sitting on the ground, prevents the Mala from touching the floor and it also remains close to your chest, which is ideal.
