Namaskar Len Kalipadma,

 

It is ok if I ask which Indian company did you purchase your parad

bead from? No obligation to respond if you do not wish to. I'm

just curious, nothing more. Would you care to describe the parad

bead, i.e. if you still have it? In my case, maybe its because my

system is already full of poisons :) hence the antidote effect and

more. Happy to test it for you if you wish. Mine is worn without

any sort of coating. While mercury amalgams were slowly killing me

during early years when they were in tooth fillings, my bead is

doing the opposite. However, in utmost resonance with you regarding

rudrakshas! Another of my passions :) You're spot on too about

each individual's mileage varying! Love the description of your

crystal Ganesha murti. Is it clear quartz?

 

Namo Narayana,

Simone (or Sy)

It was a company in Chennai (Madras) that made yantras. Navashakti

Neelayam, I think.

It was round, silvery, about the size of my thumbnail, with a large hole

running through it, and threaded on heavy red cord. After I broke out in

the rash, I sealed it in an envelope, folded it up, and filed it...

somewhere. (My filing system is unreliable at best!)

Oh, so am I! An Ayurvedic doctor said I am that rarity, someone with

Vata, Pitta, AND Kappha imbalances.

Again, I have no idea whether I can find it.

Neither was mine. But (as I said) I've read statements from a Westerner

who imported Parad Shiva lingams and other <murthies> that one should

coat them with acrylic...

I wear a rudraksha mala 24/7 except when I'm bathing or having sex. And

use it for counting my mantra. I have a few rudrakshas with

oddly-numbered "faces." A nine-faced one I wear during Durga Navaratri,

a seven-faced one I wear when under Saturn transits. I bought a

three-faced one for Mars, but it looks like a normal five-face with two

of the faces filled in -- I think it's a phony.

Of course. I had a friend who went to India buy me a small lot of

crystal Ganeshas (imagining I'd resell them and be the crystal Ganesh

King). Some folks complained they were too expensive for little glass

statues. I'd correct them -- not glass, quartz crystal... Vajra! Being

naieve and not greedy, I only doubled the wholesale price but two

sharp-eyed ladies at a New Age Conference whispered (within my earshot)

"Let's buy them all! We can resell these at three times the price." And

they did.

 

I'm amazed at the way Hindu <tchatchkas> get marked up when sold in the

West.

 

(Sy, this is your opportunity to give your website and talk about the

rudrakshas you sell, at very reasonable prices!)
