Hare Krsna,
Thank you for such an informative response. Yes, you asnwered my humble question in such a thoughtul way. Now I know why the thread is important, it gives me something else to be mindful of. Thank you for helping a new devotee who's in an old body.
Hare Krishna,
The Larger bead denotes Krishna and 8 beads subsequent ones denote the astha sakhi's.
