  Refs:
after some pondering and consulting with wiki, daij and 
google images, I think these don't refer to what's known as 
"mani stones" in English, though it came from the same 
Sanskrit word. "mani stone" on google images show rocks with 
Tibetan inscriptions on them while there's no mention of any 
inscriptions in any of the refs for any of the 摩尼 variants 
(i.e. ~宝珠 etc.) and google images for 摩尼 show a lot of 
drop-shaped gemstones.
