Spiritual Significance
The word Rudraksha comes from Sanskrit and is made up of two words - Rudra (God Shiva) and aksha (eye). Legend has it that after many years of meditation, one day Shiva opened his eyes to look at the earth. At that time, it is said that because of his compassion, some of his tears fell on the earth and from them, a Rudraksha tree grew.
Rudraksha seeds are attributed with many mystical and divine properties and protection for the one who bears them. The smaller the Rudraksha seed, the more it is valued. In addition, it is important how many 'mukhis' or faces a particular seed has. The term mukhi in Sanskrit means face or form. This refers to the number of faces or protuberances on a particular seed. Each face or mukhi has its special spiritual qualities and energy. The rarest seed is the one with one mukhi. The most common are seeds with five 'mukhis' or faces. This is represented by the 5 elements. In addition, it strengthens the power of the mind and increases self-confidence. Rudraksha with five mukhis can help those who wish to meditate and grow spiritually.
The Rudraksha mala is usually worn by Shiva devotees, but can be worn by anyone - as a mala or necklace - it will have a beneficial effect on all. As an aid in meditation, it can help to increase inner peace and focus.
Before going to bed, place it on an altar or in a special place. Treat it with respect.
