A conch shell is essentially the shell of a marine snail that has died naturally from old age and other causes. They are therefore extremely pure items because they are the leftovers of organisms that have broken away from the cycle of life. Additionally, it is stated that this shell is one of the eight fortunate signs and that it is "a gift from the stars" (Ashtamangala).

Benefits
Conch shells are well known for their beneficial effects, which include absorbing negative energy from your environment and transforming it into positive energy, relieving tension in your environment, lowering blood pressure, being a key component of Japa meditations, and helping with stomach problems. Additionally, blowing into a conch shell has been shown to reduce anxiety and tension.

All of these advantages are still present when a conch shell is transformed into a Mala, and it also offers the advantage of supporting your breathing and meditation techniques.
