Rudraksh is procured from the trees called ELAEOCARPUS GRANITRUS. The sacred and holy people of India (Sadhus and Yogies) are using the Rudraksh from ancient time. They use to wear it on their head, around their arms or neck in the form of rosary or pendant. In the society of religion, Rudraksha is not a new or surprising matter. The Vedic people know and understand the importance of Rudraksha. As per their belief, Rudraksha gets them closer to their God and plays an important role to provide them “MOKSHA”.
The word Rudraksh is formed with the combination of two different Sanskrit words, “Rudra” and “Aksha”. The word “Rudra” stands for Great Lord Shiva and the word “Aksha” stands for the tears of Rudra (Lord Shiva).
Most of the Rudrakshas are found in round shape with different number of faces (mukhi) on it. But few Rudrakshas are also found with the shape of cashew nuts. Sometime they are found as a pair of two Rudrakshas, naturally joined with each other, known as Gauri Shankar Rudraksha. It is believed to have the blessings of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. And sometime, though very rare, a pair of three Rudrakshas is also found, again naturally joined with each other, known as TRIJUTI Rudraksha. It is believed to have the blessings of Great Lord Vishnu, Brahma and Shiva all together. Rudrakshas are found with different faces (mukhi) to 21 faced. 2 to 8 faced Rudrakshas are normally found. 1 faced, 9 to 21 faced Rudrakshas are rarely found. Each Rudraksha has its own benefits and properties. Each Rudraksha is blessed with auspicious energies of Lord Shiva, but still is believed to under the Lordship of different Gods and Goddesses, thus having the blessings of those Gods and Goddesses too.
In astrology, Rudraksha is used as remedy of malefic planets. Unlike gems and stones, Rudrakshas are said to be always safe and beneficial for the wearer. As the direct blessings of Lord Shiva are involved, no question of illness or negative results arises.
