Rudraksha Mala

A Rudraksha Mala is often constructed with 5 Mukhi Rudraksha beads, which are readily accessible in a variety of sizes, with 10 mm being the most widely used. A mantra chanting mala, known as a Jap Mala, includes 108+1 beads, however 54+1 and 27+1 beads can also be utilized. The +1 bead in a continuous mala is called as the Meru bead, and it serves as a stopper while counting mantras.

Japa is often performed in the following manner:

The Rudraksha malas is rotated with the middle finger and thumb as the mantra is uttered. The mala returns without crossing the meru as soon as it reaches it. The count is recorded in many ways, such as writing it down with a pen or leaving some loose beads on the ground.

The method of charging each mala bead with a certain letter is known as Martrika Pratishtha. Details concerning this, as well as procedures for purifying and charging the mala, can be found in our Hindu scriptures.

A rudraksha mala can be used by anyone by just doing the rudraksha puja. Jap Yog is the chanting of mantras on a mala, and as Lord Krishna stated in the Bhagvadgita, it is the best kind of yogic practice. Jap can be performed with any mantra on a Rudraksha Malas.

In Hindu Scriptures there is explanation of unique malas, such as the Rudraksha mala in gold being dedicated to Shiva and Vishnu, while the Rudraksha mala in silver being dedicated to Shiva and Brahma.

 

Rudraksha Mala Benefits

The Rudraksha Mala is beneficial in achieving mental calmness, which can lead us to a superconscious and divine state of mind as we search for our own source and goal in life. All great souls throughout history were only able to achieve their pure goals because they were calm, fearless, and self-assured.

According to Hindu holy scripture, only the Rudraksha Mala possesses miraculous powers among all the Malas or Rosaries in the world made of pearls, silver, crystal, gold, Tulsi, sandalwood, gemstones, and so on.

The person who wears Rudraksha malas is always receiving positive energy simply by wearing them. It also supports us in our quest for enlightenment and liberation. If we meditate while wearing or jap with a Rudraksha Mala, the beneficial vibes from the beads will assist us in achieving "Salvation" or "Moksha". It also helps in the opening of chakras and the healing of our mind, body, and soul. 

It has been scientifically shown that Rudraksha mala are incredibly soothing and peaceful, and they improve the wearer's confidence.

In recent years, scientific research in India have been conducted to ascertain the degree and mechanism of Rudraksha's healing powers. Scientists confirmed that Rudraksha beads have powerful electromagnetic, paramagnetic, and inductive capabilities, as described in ancient writings. These characteristics are what give Rudraksha beads their therapeutic powers.

When Rudraksha Mala are worn around the heart, they help to keep the heartbeat steady. The beads send tiny electrical and inductive impulses with opposing polarity and intensity generating a magnetic field surrounding the body, notably around the heart. As a result, a balancing effort is exerted on the heart to regulate it if it begins to beat faster or slower than normal. This action contributes to the body's optimal blood circulation.

Apply olive oil to the beads once a month for a greater glow and longer life. Because these beads operate on the idea of touch, physical cleaning and beauty are equally significant. If the beads dry out, they will appear lifeless and may not produce the desired results. If you do not see the expected outcomes from wearing the mala, increase the frequency of washing to twice or even three times every day.
