These products created by Perpetual Graphix for Martial Fusion are the
items that we are the most proud of. Not only because these are
our
highest sale items, but because of what they represent. They were
created with one thing in mind, the spiritual side of American Kenpo
and
the Martial Arts. Granted there are some very serious references
to American Kenpo within the amulet; such as the Red Dragon, the
Tiger, and the Chinese text as an homage to Mr. Parker. However,
except for the Chinese text, the references were kept at a minimum to
give
more of a spiritual dedication to all of the Martial Arts. There
are a lot of reasons for this, some personal and some we have made very
public. The most eloquent reason being that all styles and
systems
of the Martial Arts, in some way, have a very spiritual nature to them
at their core.
The generic definition of a mala (or "worry-beads" as they were called
in a rather silly movie and commercially) is a sting of beads used in
the
practice of meditation to focus the mind. Well ok, so there is
more
to malas then just that, but that was the definition we thought we
would
use for ours. Especially since ours are not "genuine" malas in
the
material sense. We figured we would make ours more economical,
and
keep the same spiritual aspects that make them so popular.
Martial Fusion has two kinds of malas available, both of them with the
StoryBoard amulet at the bottom. The first is a long, adjustable
gold colored rope with a gray bead tied above the amulet. The
second
mala, which is experimental at this time, we have available has the
traditional
108 beads, "tiger's eye" colored, with a red tassel at the top, and
gray
beads tied above the amulet. We are currently in the
planning
stages for new designs, and right now the cost of the malas are
tentative.
We will post the prices when we get a more definite idea, but rest
assured
they will be very cost effective.
At the top are graphic representations of the amulets basic
design.
For security purposes there are some items left out, however they are
more
defining then intricate design features. Feel free to check back
for pricing and more design information. All of these sections
will
be changing often. Should you have any questions, we are open to
contact via e-mail.
