100 Jesus Beads originated in the tradition of the Orthodox and Eastern Catholic Churches.
The chotki is traditionally used as a silent “breath prayer”, with “Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God” prayed on inhalation and “have mercy on me, a sinner” prayed on exhalation. This is known as the Jesus Prayer, or the Prayer of the Heart, which invokes the Holy Name of Jesus and implores His divine mercy.
(You can read about the “Jesus Prayer” in the Catechism of the Catholic Church, paragraphs 2665-2669.)
