A  is a string of 18, 27, 54 but typically 108 beads and a larger bead as the summit (Meru, Sumeru) with a Tassel which may symbolize all the good stuff like enlightenment and lotus blossom. It is a tool to help one’s mind focus on meditation to keep count of chanting, reciting or mentally repeating a mantra, which is called Japa. 

Japa (or japam) means repeating or remembering a mantra (or mantram), and ajapa-japa (or ajapajapam) means constant awareness of the mantra, or of what it represents. ... In other words, it has begun to come naturally, turning into a constant awareness. (Wikipedia)

The number 108 is a sacred number in Hinduism and Buddhism as well as in yoga (meditation). Renowned Vedic age mathematicians refer 108 as a number of the wholeness of existence. 108 connects the Sun, Moon, and Earth: The average distance of the Sun and the Moon to Earth is 108 times their respective diameters.
