Guest guest Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 Dear All, I believe I had seen a real round one mukhi owned by Nepal's late patron saint Hari Siddhi Kali Baba. He let me keep it for a week to set in gold for him. I examined with a 10x loupe and sure enough it looked real and natural. I asked Kali Baba what is the "test" for eka mukhi, and he said they would flow upstream if placed in a river (against the current); he also said that if cows milk is poured onto a eka mukhi (goul dhana) the bead would climb UP the flow of milk and enter the pot. I never tested his eka mukhi, but I almost did when I took it to the bank of the Bhagmati river and was going to check. Once at the river side it was flowing fast and muddy water... so I was afraid to put it into the river in case it gets lost. To the best of my knowledge Kali Baba was cremated wearing his eka mukhi, plus his full mala of 108 beads all 14 faced. I also made a one kg silver and gold Trisula with the 7 gems for him and if anyone wants to see it then please visit the photos section of this group on left side of sacred-objects/ Open the "saints" file and there you'll find Kali Baba and his jeweled Trisula and also wearing his eka mukhi goal dhana. Check it out. Kali Baba took me many times to PashupatiNath mandira and he knew all the rudraksha and Shalagram sellers on the temple road. He showed me how they make phony eka mukhi. AND, he said, except for his, the others were all bogus 100%. Kali Baba's picture from 1977 is also attached just in case...
