Rudraksha
What is Rudraksha?
Rudraksh is formed by association of two words, ‘RUDRA’ and ‘AKSHA’. Rudra is the name of Lord Shiva. Aksha means ‘tear’. It is said that the plant of Rudraksh is originated from the tear drops of Lord Shiva.
Rudraksh, according to vedic traditions, has the ability to significantly reduce the impacts of malefic planets. Rudraksh of any mukhi, according to Shastras, can never hurt the user, unlike Navratnas, which must be carefully chosen. The Rudraksh seed has a special place in the world, and it is said to have mystical and heavenly powers. According to legend, the Rudraksh seed holds the secrets of the entire universe’ evolution.
The Rudraksh is worn for its unique properties. If electrified and empowered properly, these are far more potent and can assist in doing great things. Rudraksh of various mukhis is beneficial to the planets associated with them. It might be adequate to search exclusively for mukhis whose ruling planets have malefic effects. Before wearing the Rudraksh, cleanse and purify it with milk, ghee, or oil, then do pran prathista (give life to the Rudraksh). The Rudraksh becomes activated when the mukhis’ mantras are repeated.
Rudraksh beads are thought to have certain electromagnetic and inductive properties, and when worn over the heart, they send out corresponding signals to the brain, activating or controlling certain brain chemicals and neurotransmitters, and inducing states of mind as described in ancient scriptures.
Because of the Dynamic Polarity of the Rudraksha a bead, it has been proven medically that Rudraksh has very potent Anti-Aging characteristics. As a result, the healing powers of Rudraksha are far superior to those of Magnets.
Many people have questioned the authenticity of rudraksha beads, particularly the more expensive ones. Some people even issue certificates certifying the rudraksha’s authenticity. There are also a variety of alternative procedures that people use, such as boiling it in water. However, the only way to determine the originality of a rudraksha is to divide it in half, with the number of faces determined by the number of seeds (beej) or holes.
