The name Ronin mala comes from the client. I asked the client to name this mala after I built it. The name came from an interest in knights from different parts of the world. The word Ronin or rōnin (浪人) actually refers to a samurai without master or lord, a worrier finding his path without restraint. He was inspired by Ronin when thinking about his career path journey of being an independent Animation/VFX Producer. Just a wondering producer gaining knowledge and skill for the next fight (new projects). I was instantly feeling connected to his world when I told him that I am also a ronin in some sense when I started ZENMUART and built malas or bracelets as a hobby for customers.
