Hand string source
A bracelet, also known as a bead, refers to a personal instrument that runs through a certain number of beads with a thread and is used to count when reciting the Buddha or holding a mantra. The origin of the Buddha bead, usually due to the ancient Indian fashion of the ribbon, was inherited from later generations, and gradually evolved into a Buddha bead.
The beads are derived from the Buddha's teachings on the Exiled King as a general theory. The Mushuzi Sutra says: If one wants to destroy the obstacles of defilement and the report of obstacles, he should pass through the wooden trees one hundred and eighteen, so that he will always follow himself; if he walks, if he sits, if he lies down, he should always have no distraction in his mind, and call the Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha the name, but he should pass through a wooden tree...
It can be seen from this that after hearing the Buddha's teachings, King Boliu began to make Buddha beads out of wooden trees and chanted the name of the Three Jewels of the Dharma Monks to eliminate the obstacles of defilement and retribution. This is probably the original origin of the Buddha beads in Buddhism.
