What is Rudraksha Therapy?
Rudraksha beads are sacred seeds from the Elaeocarpus ganitrus tree, revered in Vedic tradition as tears of Lord Shiva. Each bead has a specific number of faces (Mukhi), and different Mukhi counts correspond to different planetary energies and deities, making them powerful astrological remedies.
The Shiva Purana and Padma Purana extensively describe Rudraksha properties. Unlike gemstones which amplify a planet's energy, Rudraksha beads work by neutralizing negative planetary influences and providing a protective shield, making them safer for general use.
How Does Rudraksha Therapy Work?
Each Mukhi Rudraksha is associated with a planetary ruler. A one-Mukhi bead represents the Sun, two-Mukhi represents the Moon, three-Mukhi represents Mars, and so on up to fourteen Mukhis. Wearing the appropriate Mukhi pacifies the corresponding planet's malefic effects.
Rudraksha beads are worn as pendants, bracelets, or malas. They are energized by chanting the associated mantra and ideally worn touching the skin. Unlike gemstones, Rudraksha is generally considered safe for all charts as it balances rather than amplifies planetary energy.
