Guest guest Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 Dear Richard and Friends, I was just visiting the site of Nepa Rudraksha, considered to be one of the most authentic and reliable wholesellers of the Nepali Rudraksha. I believe they supply the majority of the large Indian retailers. They have just added the STUNNING DISCOVERY, the first in their 40 years of doing business, of GENUINE ROUND ONE MUKHI AND NIRAKAR NEPALI RUDRAKSHA, WOW, THIS IS TRULY INCREDIBLE!!! I believe we can be sure these beads are the real thing, Nepa Rudraksha have an impeccable reputation and would definitely not risk to jeopardize this by offering fake beads. Go to http://www.nepalirudraksha.com/ to take Darshan of these most rare Rudraksha in existence. I have contacted Mukunda Khatiwada for more information and will update as soon as I learn more. ~ Ole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 I totally disagree with Mr. Alstrup that GENUINE ROUND ONE MUKHI AND NIRAKAR NEPALI RUDRAKSHA, found in Nepal. I have visited the link and these are fake ones which you can get in Rs. 500 to 1100 nepali currency. So Bhaktajans do not get carried away by these unholy beads. He may be a good supplier of Rudraksha but definitely not the best one. The best is only one is only Rudra Centre which does not deal at all in so called GENUINE ROUND ONE MUKHI AND NIRAKAR NEPALI RUDRAKSHA. They have also been approached with these kinds of beads by different suppliers but they do not deal in these fake beads. These are those beads which naturally has not completely formed and only 1 face of these beads is only formed. So be careful, the only check is to cut one bead and see whether there is only one seed inside. Can he do it to prove its genuity???.

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 Dear All, A round Ekmukhi is present with the Son in Law of the home minister of Rajasthan. It was gifted 20 years back. A Jain Sadhu visited his place and gifted it to him. I will try to get the photograph of this bead. According to him the bead rotates while it is kept in hand. I want to test his claims. One of my close friends who is in South Africa had also seen a piece many years back. It was there with his Guruji. According to him this bead used to rotate while kept in hand. So many mouths and so many claims. I will try to find out the whole truth related to ek Mukhi. I have also seen the photographs of the bead on the website. It is not round first of all. Secondly the beads like that are culutured in Haridwar. They are round and real. But they are not natural and are available at the price of 2700 Rs onwards. I have seen lot of them. They too are not round. Regards Alok PS: Truth is difficult and bitter. But illusions taste the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 Hi Friends, I am Siddharth Mishra. I have recently joined this group as I found some interesting discussion going on about Ek Mukhi ( 1 MUKHI) Rudraksha. At the outset I would like to submit that I am into business of Rudraksha since 5 years and I am teaching Rudraksha Therapy at Hydrabad. I have visited Nepal and I know all the Nepali Suppliers and their credentials. I had visited the link which was sent by one of the group member about one site claiming that they have 1 mukhi Rudraksha. First of all let us be very clear that any Rudraksha will have seeds inside which are actual the source of energy of a bead. It is a proven fact that a 5 mukhi bead if cut laterally will have 5 seeds inside it and same goes for any other mukhi bead. A 10 Mukhi will definite have 10 seeds inside. Now the bead which is shown in the site, Friends believe me this is actually a 4 mukhi Rudraksha whose mukhs have not formed completely. If you see this bead clearly you will see that it has four impressions like a 4 Mukhi bead and which actually could have converted to 4 mukhs of the bead if formed properly. This is a genuine 4 mukhi rudraksha but definitely not 1 Mukhi Rudraksha as claimed by the site. Tomorrow I will try to post the cut section of a similar bead which does not have even 1 line. I have now learnt that this bead is called as Nirakar bead. There is no such name mentioned in our ancient text. Infact the description of beads after 14 mukhi is only mentioned in katiyani puran, otherwise there is no mention of any properties or description available from 15 Mukhi onwards in any of the text. Yes I agree that a javanese 1 mukhi has a clear 1 line on the bead and when it is cut laterally then only one seed is seen. A two mukhi javanese bead similarly have two seeds inside. I feel javanese one mukhi is more authentic than even Indian Kaju shaped 1 mukhi. And have you noticed the shape of 1 mukhi Javanese bead it is just like a flattened and tappered bead. I want to further submit that botanically 1 mukhi round bead can never exist. Simple logic behind this is thatif we srr a 6 mukhi or five mukhi they will be round beads to the perfection, if we see a 4 mukhi bead , we will find it a bit squarish shaped, if we see a three mukhi we find it a bit triangular shaped, if we see a 2 mukhi bead we find it a bit more flat, so in nut shell as the mukhs of the bead reduces the bead becomes more and more tapered. Why ever we have not found a perfect shaped 2 mukhi round bead, they will always be flattened beads whether they are from Nepal, or India or Indonesia. Similarly a 1 mukhi can never be round it will definitely be a Kaju shaped or a haly moon shaped bead. Similarly if we go to higher mukhis like 12 or 13 or 17 and above we will find them more oval , I mean they will have more length and less breadth. Now I challange the site that let it cut the bead laterally and if it does not have 4 seeds I will pay the whole amount to the site otherwise this site will promise to not to misguide the devotees any more and dupe people on the name being a reputed site. A reputed site cannot stoop to such low levels for petty monetary gains. My suggestion is that it should be immediately removed from the site. And Devotees pl just do not close your eyes because one particular site has served you well once with the good beads. We should be very very rational in our thinking. We should get the best bead for the amount we are spending. Few devotees show their beads to me and say that it is 20 years old bead and has been given by one Sadhu or renowned Baba especially 1 mukhi Rudraksha and beleive me friends they are all fake ones. Even old Babas I dont know from where they could manage the fake 1 muhkis or Rudrakshas with artificially carved Trishuls etc. The age of the Rudraksha can not make it a genuine bead. Similarly now also the site is basically befooling the devotees. So beware Freinds. Aum Namah Shivaye Siddharth Mishra sacred-objects, Ole Alstrup <alstrup wrote: > > Really?!

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 comment about the "Nirakar" bead, but I know that its name is not derived from any scripture, I guess it means "no mukhi". It seems you are confusing the two beads shown at the Nepa rudraksha site. Some more pics of the two bead will shortly be uploaded at the Open Rudraksha Forum, courtesy by the owner and moderator of that forum. I am informed that the One Mukhi round shown at the site has its shape like three mukhi round nepali with only one mukhi, the other mukhi is seen to be covered so it has to be considered as one mukhi as well. It would be interesting to know how many Nepali suppliers are there and what are their names? Also, what is the Katiyani Purana - an upa purana? Where is it available?

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 rudrakshas available in the market are fake." The rudrakshas are categorised according to the number of divisions or lines found on them. The Ekamukhi rudraksha, for instance, has one line running across it. And, when a rudraksha is horizontally cut into two, the number of chambers or seeds seen is equal to the number of lines running over it. Mr. Rao heads a research team that works on rudrakshas. The exhibition at C.P. Art Foundation, Alwarpet, which is open till February 23 from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., will also help the public to identify real and fake rudrakshas. Rare pieces, including those with a single line to those with 21 lines, are displayed at the exhibition. Some are exclusive pieces that are available only in Nepal. The cost of pieces for sale range from 22 paise to Rs.7 lakh.regardsGregwww.spacetrader.com.aua_jagawat wrote: Dear All,A round Ekmukhi is present with the Son in Law of the home minister of Rajasthan.

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 seeds inside. Here itself you are wrong my dear friend. Pl confirm from your reputed site that what you are writing is correct or incorrect. Also pl confirm from your Botanist friend too that what you are saying is right or wrong. If they think that you are right then let them mail in the group and let other devotees also know about the same. Pl Mr. Ole come out of your mind set . What you are saying is absolutely incorrect. Let us not beat around the bush any more. Tell me how many 8 mukhis if you cut say 100 will have 7 seeds inside ? pl ponder on this. Our botanist Chandrashekharji can supply much input in this field, as he has shared that at the RSBC group earlier on and also at the open rudraksha forum. I want to hear from Mr. Chandrashekar that how many 8 mukhi will have 7 seeds inside or 9 seeds inside if he cuts 100 eight Mukhi beads. Pl answer Mr. Shekhar. I would refer anyone to look at David Zaremba's site at www.rudraksha-center.com and click on inside rudraksha pictures. You will find an examination of two 5 mukhis beads, which clearly prove this point. This is not true. Yes some times it happens that two seeds are so close that they appear to be one. But definitely it will not happen for all the 5 Mukhi beads. And we cannot generalise that a 5 mukhi will have 4 seeds or 6 seeds. This could be due to their abnormal growth. This is more of a diseased bead. It happens in the little ones of animals and human being as well that they are born with some abnormality. So they are treated to remove this abnormality. Not that they become super human. So your theory that the number of seeds inside is the source of the power in a bead is therefore proven wrong. My theory is unchallengable. Because I know what I am writing is true to the core. I am not taking anybody's names to prove my point. I challenge any knowledgable person of Rudraksha will say the same thing what I have been saying. You ask any one. Infact Lateral cutting is the only test by which you can ascertain that the Rudraksha is actually how many mukhis. Again I am sure your site person and Mr. Chandrashekhar will agree with me. I want to read their comments and I am sure all group members would like to read. I cannot comment about the "Nirakar" bead, but I know that its name is not derived from any scripture, I guess it means "no mukhi". Yes it is good that you are not commenting for some thing you do not know. Pl go to BISHAL BAZAR in Kathmandu and you will see no. of shops in ground and first floor inside this complex, pl ask them whether they can give 'zero' mukhi bead and you will get atleast 5 TO 10 from them which will either have no mukh or will have one mukh and believe me that they are genuine ones. The cost would be Rs. 500 to Rs. 1000 NC(NEPALI CURRENCY). Now here the difference is that on the site they are a bit refined one, more good to look at. Thats all , but if cut laterally they will have 3 seeds or 4 seeds or 5 seeds. Believe me I am right because I have done it myself so I dont need any credantials for any one. It seems you are confusing the two beads shown at the Nepa rudraksha site. My logic and conviction is beyond doubt. Pl be rest assured. I have done my homework thoroughly before writing in this group. Some more pics of the two bead will shortly be uploaded at the Open Rudraksha Forum, courtesy by the owner and moderator of that forum. I am sure with all this discussion the site person will not try to befool devotees any more. I am informed that the One Mukhi round shown at the site has its shape like three mukhi round nepali with only one mukhi, the other mukhi is seen to be covered so it has to be considered as one mukhi as well. It does not happen the way you think. The energy source in any bead is the seed inside. So even if the mukhs are covered naturally the bead continues to be equivalent to the number of seeds inside. Its affect will be same as the no. of seeds inside. Botanically it is not possible to have 1 mukhi round bead. I again reitreate that it has to be flat one and half moon shaped. It would be interesting to know how many Nepali suppliers are there and what are their names? I dont think this will matter in any way. Also, what is the Katiyani Purana - an upa purana? Where is it available? Write me a personal mail. I will tell the source where you can get this. My aim is not to take the shelter of any site or any person otherwise people will start linking my name with them. Thanks, Siddharthacharyasidhmis <sidhmis > wrote: Hi Friends,I am Siddharth Mishra. I have recently joined this group as I found some interesting discussion going on about Ek Mukhi ( 1 MUKHI) Rudraksha. At the outset I would like to submit that I am into business of Rudraksha since 5 years and I am teaching Rudraksha Therapy at Hydrabad. I have visited Nepal and I know all the Nepali Suppliers and their credentials.I had visited the link which was sent by one of the group member about one site claiming that they have 1 mukhi Rudraksha. First of all let us be very clear that any Rudraksha will have seeds inside which are actual the source of energy of a bead. It is a proven fact that a 5 mukhi bead if cut laterally will have 5 seeds inside it and same goes for any other mukhi bead. A 10 Mukhi will definite have 10 seeds inside. Now the bead which is shown in the site, Friends believe me this is actually a 4 mukhi Rudraksha whose mukhs have not formed completely. If you see this bead clearly you will see that it has four impressions like a 4 Mukhi bead and which actually could have converted to 4 mukhs of the bead if formed properly. This is a genuine 4 mukhi rudraksha but definitely not 1 Mukhi Rudraksha as claimed by the site. Tomorrow I will try to post the cut section of a similar bead which does not have even 1 line. I have now learnt that this bead is called as Nirakar bead. There is no such name mentioned in our ancient text. Infact the description of beads after 14 mukhi is only mentioned in katiyani puran, otherwise there is no mention of any properties or description available from 15 Mukhi onwards in any of the text. Yes I agree that a javanese 1 mukhi has a clear 1 line on the bead and when it is cut laterally then only one seed is seen. A two mukhi javanese bead similarly have two seeds inside. I feel javanese one mukhi is more authentic than even Indian Kaju shaped 1 mukhi. And have you noticed the shape of 1 mukhi Javanese bead it is just like a flattened and tappered bead.I want to further submit that botanically 1 mukhi round bead can never exist. Simple logic behind this is thatif we srr a 6 mukhi or five mukhi they will be round beads to the perfection, if we see a 4 mukhi bead , we will find it a bit squarish shaped, if we see a three mukhi we find it a bit triangular shaped, if we see a 2 mukhi bead we find it a bit more flat, so in nut shell as the mukhs of the bead reduces the bead becomes more and more tapered. Why ever we have not found a perfect shaped 2 mukhi round bead, they will always be flattened beads whether they are from Nepal, or India or Indonesia. Similarly a 1 mukhi can never be round it will definitely be a Kaju shaped or a haly moon shaped bead. Similarly if we go to higher mukhis like 12 or 13 or 17 and above we will find them more oval , I mean they will have more length and less breadth.Now I challange the site that let it cut the bead laterally and if it does not have 4 seeds I will pay the whole amount to the site otherwise this site will promise to not to misguide the devotees any more and dupe people on the name being a reputed site. A reputed site cannot stoop to such low levels for petty monetary gains. My suggestion is that it should be immediately removed from the site.And Devotees pl just do not close your eyes because one particular site has served you well once with the good beads. We should be very very rational in our thinking. We should get the best bead for the amount we are spending. Few devotees show their beads to me and say that it is 20 years old bead and has been given by one Sadhu or renowned Baba especially 1 mukhi Rudraksha and beleive me friends they are all fake ones. Even old Babas I dont know from where they could manage the fake 1 muhkis or Rudrakshas with artificially carved Trishuls etc. The age of the Rudraksha can not make it a genuine bead. Similarly now also the site is basically befooling the devotees. So beware Freinds.Aum Namah ShivayeSiddharth Mishrasacred-objects, Ole Alstrup <alstrup wrote:>> Really?! This is very odd to read. So what happened? I ordered 4 malas from Nepa Rudraksha and always received first class beads and treatment.

I did not even order collector beads, as this was before the the term was coined on the internet. We have also purchased from RC twice and their selection of beads is great, except for one incident where my wife received a 10 mukhi collector bead and it was quite smaller than advertised.

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 about Rudraksha you think is correct but I dont think so. I basically had an interest to know more in the context of your claims, that was all... I would like to state that it is an ESTABLISHED fact that the number of mukhis do not necessarily correspond to the number of seeds inside a bead, so I wonder how many beads you actually have examined? Who say so? It is not an established fact that no. of beads do not necessarily correspond to the no. of seeds inside. Here itself you are wrong my dear friend. Pl confirm from your reputed site that what you are writing is correct or incorrect. Well, first of all you did not answer my question of how many beads you yourself have examined according to your own set standards... Also pl confirm from your Botanist friend too that what you are saying is right or wrong. If they think that you are right then let them mail in the group and let other devotees also know about the same. Of course, as you may know, Chandrashekharji is a frequent poster here and will no doubt supply his input very soon... Pl Mr. Ole come out of your mind set . What you are saying is absolutely incorrect. Let us not beat around the bush any more. Tell me how many 8 mukhis if you cut say 100 will have 7 seeds inside ? pl ponder on this. I do not know as I have certainly not performed such a test, have you? Our botanist Chandrashekharji can supply much input in this field, as he has shared that at the RSBC group earlier on and also at the open rudraksha forum. I want to hear from Mr. Chandrashekar that how many 8 mukhi will have 7 seeds inside or 9 seeds inside if he cuts 100 eight Mukhi beads. Pl answer Mr. Shekhar. Well, I dont think that is any relevant test in the context of our discussion, and not fair to Chandrahshekharji, I have supplied you information which refute your theory and you refuse to acknowledge it, so what can I do? I would refer anyone to look at David Zaremba's site at www.rudraksha-center.com and click on inside rudraksha pictures. You will find an examination of two 5 mukhis beads, which clearly prove this point. This is not true. Yes, it is, you can see it if you will just look... Yes some times it happens that two seeds are so close that they appear to be one. That is not what this RANDOM test showed... But definitely it will not happen for all the 5 Mukhi beads. And we cannot generalise that a 5 mukhi will have 4 seeds or 6 seeds. No one claimed this, the result is still the same, seeds inside do not necessarily correspond to number of outside mukhis.. This could be due to their abnormal growth. This is more of a diseased bead. It happens in the little ones of animals and human being as well that they are born with some abnormality. So they are treated to remove this abnormality. Not that they become super human. A 5 mukhi bead with 1,2,3,4,5,6 etc seeds inside is still a 5 mukhi bead. Your comparison has absolutely no bearing on the result. Now you are claiming that any bead with different number of seeds is diseased, but the FACT remains that if you cut a bead, the number of seeds inside will not NECESSARILY be the same as the outside mukhis. You may view it as diseased, I do not. A rudraksha with NATURAL number of mukhis is certainly that bead, because THIS IS HOW A BEAD IS EXAMINED IN THE FIRST PLACE, NOT THE SEEDS, WE FIND NOTHING ABOUT THAT FROM RUDRAKSHA TRADITION; SO THAT IS YOUR THEORY ONLY... So your theory that the number of seeds inside is the source of the power in a bead is therefore proven wrong. My theory is unchallengable. Because I know what I am writing is true to the core.

Well, of course, according to your own BOTANICAL logic, IF you ever encountered a TRUE 1 mukhi round bead, you would either label it as a fake, diseased or a freak of nature, but it would still be a TRUE 1 mukhi. It would be interesting to know how many Nepali suppliers are there and what are their names? I dont think this will matter in any way. I was merely interested in your insights in this area.

So what do you mean by genuine ones? The cost would be Rs. 500 to Rs. 1000 NC(NEPALI CURRENCY). Now here the difference is that on the site they are a bit refined one, more good to look at. Thats all , but if cut laterally they will have 3 seeds or 4 seeds or 5 seeds. Believe me I am right because I have done it myself so I dont need any credantials for any one. It seems you are confusing the two beads shown at the Nepa rudraksha site. My logic and conviction is beyond doubt. Pl be rest assured. I have done my homework thoroughly before writing in this group. Some more pics of the two bead will shortly be uploaded at the Open Rudraksha Forum, courtesy by the owner and moderator of that forum. I am sure with all this discussion the site person will not try to befool devotees any more. That particular bead is still subject to investigation, contrary to your premature conclusions. I am informed that the One Mukhi round shown at the site has its shape like three mukhi round nepali with only one mukhi, the other mukhi is seen to be covered so it has to be considered as one mukhi as well. It does not happen the way you think. The energy source in any bead is the seed inside. So even if the mukhs are covered naturally the bead continues to be equivalent to the number of seeds inside. Its affect will be same as the no. of seeds inside. What you are stating here is again not stated in ANY authentic rudraksha scripture and this is of course NOT the proper way of identifying a bead, except for a botanical investigation, so we can dismiss it. Botanically it is not possible to have 1 mukhi round bead. I again reitreate that it has to be flat one and half moon shaped. Well, of course, according to your own BOTANICAL logic, IF you ever encountered a TRUE 1 mukhi round bead, you would either label it as a fake, diseased or a freak of nature, but it would still be a TRUE 1 mukhi. It would be interesting to know how many Nepali suppliers are there and what are their names? I dont think this will matter in any way. I was merely interested in your insights in this area. Also, what is the Katiyani Purana - an upa purana? Where is it available? Write me a personal mail. I will tell the source where you can get this. My aim is not to take the shelter of any site or any person otherwise people will start linking my name with them. I dont see what the big fuss is about this, but as you wish.

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 Dear Richardji, Namaste . We do not have 1 mukhi round in our collection . The bead we have is Javanese one which is flat and very tiny and X-ray shows the presence of one seed in it . This we use in the Indra mala Javanese on our website . We have never traded through our website in so called 1 mukhi round from Nepal . We have done extensive X-rays on all mukhis which are in our records , which show clearly that the seeds correspond to the number of mukhis .. Sometimes the seeds are very close to each other , which makes them hard to distinguish in X-rays We also have X-ray of the round beads from Nepal which have less developed mukhis in the exterior making them seem mukhiless , and the X-rays show 5 seeds in them . We have been doing X-ray research in order to develop a very convincing method of distinguishing fake beads from real Maybe in coming future , we would have success in this .

Guest guest Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 access the group, but he will try again tomorrow. LETS WAIT. Thanks, ~Ole You appear to be a broker of this particular site. Just learn to accept truth. Dont get frustrated if you are unable to prove your point. I want to discontinue this discussion because my purpose of informing the devotees has been acheived and this was unnecessarily creating negativity in the fine group. You pl buy these type of 1 mukhi and let other devotees also take their own decision of buying this or not. Try to increase your knowledge. Laxmi will come to you automatically. You need not do publicity for any product on some one else behalf. I have again answered your querries. Pl go thro. I would request the club owner to stop further mails on this subject. We have put allegations and counter allegations enough. Lets make this platform a healthier platform for discussions and not for commercial gains. My comments in black bold letters below: Hello Ole Alstrup. Hello again It would be interesting if you could share more info about your rudraksha business and your teaching.of therapy in Hyderabad. I dont think that this is relevant in the present context. I am not asking about your background, and your knowledge about Rudraksha you think is correct but I dont think so. I basically had an interest to know more in the context of your claims, that was all... NO ANSWER FOR THIS I would like to state that it is an ESTABLISHED fact that the number of mukhis do not necessarily correspond to the number of seeds inside a bead, so I wonder how many beads you actually have examined? Who say so? It is not an established fact that no. of beads do not necessarily correspond to the no. of seeds inside. Here itself you are wrong my dear friend. Pl confirm from your reputed site that what you are writing is correct or incorrect. Well, first of all you did not answer my question of how many beads you yourself have examined according to your own set standards... MORE THAN 1000 BEADS. WE TEACH OUR STUDENTS ABOUT EACH BEADS AND THEIR PROPERTIES. NOW DONT ASK WHAT IS THE NAME OF MY STUDENTS WHAT IS THE NAME OF MY INSTITUTE. Also pl confirm from your Botanist friend too that what you are saying is right or wrong. If they think that you are right then let them mail in the group and let other devotees also know about the same. Of course, as you may know, Chandrashekharji is a frequent poster here and will no doubt supply his input very soon... HAVE YOU ASKED HIM THAT YOUR THEORY SPECIFICALLY THAT 'NO. OF SEEDS MAY NOT BE EQUAL TO NO. OF MUKHS' INSIDE THE RUDRAKSHA BEAD. PL MAKE HIM ASNWER THIS. Pl Mr. Ole come out of your mind set . What you are saying is absolutely incorrect. Let us not beat around the bush any more. Tell me how many 8 mukhis if you cut say 100 will have 7 seeds inside ? pl ponder on this. I do not know as I have certainly not performed such a test, have you? I HAVE PERFORMED ON OVER 1000 BEADS OF NEPALI ORIGIN. Our botanist Chandrashekharji can supply much input in this field, as he has shared that at the RSBC group earlier on and also at the open rudraksha forum. I want to hear from Mr. Chandrashekar that how many 8 mukhi will have 7 seeds inside or 9 seeds inside if he cuts 100 eight Mukhi beads. Pl answer Mr. Shekhar. Well, I dont think that is any relevant test in the context of our discussion, and not fair to Chandrahshekharji, I have supplied you information which refute your theory and you refuse to acknowledge it, so what can I do? NO AS OF NOW HE HAS NOT ANSWERED. LETS WAIT FOR HIS ANSWER . SO PL DONT COMMENT THAT I REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE. I would refer anyone to look at David Zaremba's site at www.rudraksha-center.com and click on inside rudraksha pictures. You will find an examination of two 5 mukhis beads, which clearly prove this point. This is not true. Yes, it is, you can see it if you will just look... YOU ARE BEATING AROUND THE BUSH. IF A BEAD IS HAVING MORE MUKHS THAN THE SEEDS INSIDE THAN IT IS A DISEASED BEAD. IT HAS NOT GROWN FULLY. IT IS JUST LIKE AN RETATRDED CHILD WHO HAS ALL THE BODY PARTS BUT HIS BRAIN DOES NOT WORK LIKE A NORMAL CHILD. IT IS THE SEED INSIDE WHICH IS THE ENERGY SOURCE. THE MUKHS ARE MERELY THE OUTLETS FROM WHERE THE ENERGY GOES OUT ENERGY. MAN CAN MAKE MUKHS ARTIFICIALLY ON THE BEED BUT HE CANNOT PLANT SEED INSIDE IT CORRESPONDINGLY. Yes some times it happens that two seeds are so close that they appear to be one. That is not what this RANDOM test showed... I HAVE ANSWERED IT. But definitely it will not happen for all the 5 Mukhi beads. And we cannot generalise that a 5 mukhi will have 4 seeds or 6 seeds. No one claimed this, the result is still the same, seeds inside do not necessarily correspond to number of outside mukhis.. AGAIN BEATING AROUND THE BUSH. YOU YOUR SELF TAKE 5 NEPALI BEADS AND CUT THEM LATERLLY AND SEE THE RESULTS YOUR SELF. I CHALLENGE IF I AM WRONG. ALL 5 BEADS WILL HAVE 5 SEEDS INSIDE. PL CHECK IT YOURSELF DONT GO BY OTHER SITES AND PICTURES PEOPLE HAVE SENT EARLIER. DO IT YOURSELF AND THEN TALK TO ME. This could be due to their abnormal growth. This is more of a diseased bead. It happens in the little ones of animals and human being as well that they are born with some abnormality. So they are treated to remove this abnormality. Not that they become super human. A 5 mukhi bead with 1,2,3,4,5,6 etc seeds inside is still a 5 mukhi bead. Your comparison has absolutely no bearing on the result. Now you are claiming that any bead with different number of seeds is diseased, but the FACT remains that if you cut a bead, the number of seeds inside will not NECESSARILY be the same as the outside mukhis. You may view it as diseased, I do not. A rudraksha with NATURAL number of mukhis is certainly that bead, because THIS IS HOW A BEAD IS EXAMINED IN THE FIRST PLACE, NOT THE SEEDS, WE FIND NOTHING ABOUT THAT FROM RUDRAKSHA TRADITION; SO THAT IS YOUR THEORY ONLY... HA HA ITS RUBBISH. ITS WHAT YOU THINK. DO THE TEST YOURSELF AND FIND OUT THE TRUTH. So your theory that the number of seeds inside is the source of the power in a bead is therefore proven wrong. My theory is unchallengable. Because I know what I am writing is true to the core. I am not taking anybody's names to prove my point. I challenge any knowledgable person of Rudraksha will say the same thing what I have been saying. You ask any one. You may claim as you like, but there is no value to your claim. I HAVE ENOUGH FOLLOWERES AND STUDENTS. I DONT WANT MORE. I AGAIN REITREATE THAT ANY KNOWLEDABLE PERSON WILL SAY WHAT I AM SAYING. Infact Lateral cutting is the only test by which you can ascertain that the Rudraksha is actually how many mukhis. Again I am sure your site person and Mr. Chandrashekhar will agree with me. I want to read their comments and I am sure all group members would like to read. Lateral cutting will show the number of seeds, not mukhis, thats all. NO. YOU ARE WRONG. YOU HAVE TO DIVIDE THE BEAD IN TWO PARTS. YOU CAN SEE THE SEEDS AS WELL AS MUKHS. YOU CAN TURN THE BEAD SLIGHTLY AND SEE THE CORRESPONDING MUKH AS WELL . IT IS VERY EASY. I cannot comment about the "Nirakar" bead, but I know that its name is not derived from any scripture, I guess it means "no mukhi". Yes it is good that you are not commenting for some thing you do not know. Pl go to BISHAL BAZAR in Kathmandu and you will see no. of shops in ground and first floor inside this complex, pl ask them whether they can give 'zero' mukhi bead and you will get atleast 5 TO 10 from them which will either have no mukh or will have one mukh and believe me that they are genuine ones. So what do you mean by genuine ones? FROM OUTSIDE THEY ARE NOT TEMPERED. BUT ACTUALLY THERE GROWTH IS NOT COMPLETE. The cost would be Rs. 500 to Rs. 1000 NC(NEPALI CURRENCY). Now here the difference is that on the site they are a bit refined one, more good to look at. Thats all , but if cut laterally they will have 3 seeds or 4 seeds or 5 seeds. Believe me I am right because I have done it myself so I dont need any credantials for any one. HA HA NO COMMENTS ON THIS ???? It seems you are confusing the two beads shown at the Nepa rudraksha site. My logic and conviction is beyond doubt. Pl be rest assured. I have done my homework thoroughly before writing in this group. ??? Some more pics of the two bead will shortly be uploaded at the Open Rudraksha Forum, courtesy by the owner and moderator of that forum. I am sure with all this discussion the site person will not try to befool devotees any more. That particular bead is still subject to investigation, contrary to your premature conclusions. HE HAS TO TAKE IT OUT SOONER OR LATER. WATCH IT YOURSELF.... I am informed that the One Mukhi round shown at the site has its shape like three mukhi round nepali with only one mukhi, the other mukhi is seen to be covered so it has to be considered as one mukhi as well.

IT IS NOT POSSIBLE. IT CANNOT BE ROUND. I AM NOT DENYING THAT 1 MUKHI DOES NOT EXIST, BUT WHAT I AM TELLING IS THAT I MUKHI CANNOT BE ROUND IT WILL BE FLATTENED AND MORE LIKE A HALF MOON SHAPED BEAD. BUT YOU PL PURCHASE ROUND ONE MUKHI OIF YOU EVER FIND FROM THE REPUTED SITE YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT BECAUSE FOR YOU IT WILL BE A GENUINE ROUND 1 MUKHI. It would be interesting to know how many Nepali suppliers are there and what are their names? I dont think this will matter in any way. I was merely interested in your insights in this area. ???

DONT MAKE EGO ISSUE JUST ACCEPT THAT KNOWLEDGE CAN BE GAINED FROM ANY BODY, AND YOU DO NOT KNOW EVERY THING ABOUT RUDRAKSHAS. I CONSIDER MYSELF STILL A STUDENT OF THIS SUBJEST. THIS IS GREATNESS. OK.

Guest guest Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 the absolute truth. RUBBISH. I just received a mail from Chandrahsekharji informing me of some server problems he had yesterday to access the group, but he will try again tomorrow. LETS WAIT. Thanks, ~Ole You appear to be a broker of this particular site. I AM NOT Just learn to accept truth. OF COURSE, I WILL READILY ACKNOWLEDGE SUCH TRUTH IF I ENCOUNTER IT, SO FAR HAVE NOT SEEN IT, THAT IS WHY AM PRESSING YOU TO ANSWER Dont get frustrated if you are unable to prove your point. WHY SHOULD I GET FRUSTRATED IF I ENCOUNTER TRUTH, THIS IS NOT A PERSONAL THING I want to discontinue this discussion because my purpose of informing the devotees has been acheived and this was unnecessarily creating negativity in the fine group. WE HAVE TO MAKE A STAND IF SOMEONE IS MISLEADING, OTHERWISE WE ARE ALSO CHEATING, SO THAT IS ALLRIGHT You pl buy these type of 1 mukhi and let other devotees also take their own decision of buying this or not. OF COURSE, EVERYONE IS FREE TO DO WHAT THEY WANT IN LIFE, I NEVER OBJECT TO THIS AT ALL, BUT WHY SHOULD I BUY THIS BEAD, I AM DISCUSSING AN IMPORTANT SUBJECT Try to increase your knowledge. Laxmi will come to you automatically. You need not do publicity for any product on some one else behalf. I HAVE TO SAY I RESENT YOUR INSINUATIONS IN THIS REGARD I have again answered your querries. Pl go thro. I would request the club owner to stop further mails on this subject. We have put allegations and counter allegations enough. Lets make this platform a healthier platform for discussions and not for commercial gains. OF COURSE I WOULD REQUEST THE CLUB OWNER TO LET THIS THREAD CONTINUE, WHY SHOULD YOU TELL HIM TO INTEFERE AND STOP THIS WHEN WE ARE DISCUSSING AND EXPOSING THE FINER POINTS OF OUR DIFFERENT VIEWS? YOU OBVIOUSLY THINK THIS IS ABOUT MONEY, TO ME IT IS NOT ABOUT MONEY, SO I FIND THIS DISCUSSION MOST ENLIGHTENING AND I AM ALSO LEARNING, CONTRARY TO WHAT YOU MAY THINK.My comments in black bold letters below: Hello Ole Alstrup.

If they think that you are right then let them mail in the group and let other devotees also know about the same.

HAVE YOU ASKED HIM THAT YOUR THEORY SPECIFICALLY THAT 'NO. OF SEEDS MAY NOT BE EQUAL TO NO. OF MUKHS' INSIDE THE RUDRAKSHA BEAD. PL MAKE HIM ASNWER THIS. YES THAT IS CONFIRMED.

What you are saying is absolutely incorrect. Let us not beat around the bush any more. Tell me how many 8 mukhis if you cut say 100 will have 7 seeds inside ? pl ponder on this. AGAIN, I DO NOT KNOW SINCE I HAVE NOT PERFORMED SUCH A TEST. I do not know as I have certainly not performed such a test, have you? I HAVE PERFORMED ON OVER 1000 BEADS OF NEPALI ORIGIN.

BEADS ARE EXAMINED ACCORDING TO THEIR OUTSIDE AUTHENTIC NATURAL MUKHIS, NOT INNER SEEDS. I CHALLENGE YOU TO GIVE ME ONE EXAMPLE FROM HOLY RUDRAKSHA SCRIPTURES WHERE YOUR CLAIM IS MENTIONED. MAN CAN MAKE MUKHS ARTIFICIALLY ON THE BEED BUT HE CANNOT PLANT SEED INSIDE IT CORRESPONDINGLY. OF COURSE Yes some times it happens that two seeds are so close that they appear to be one. YES, WHY NOT That is not what this RANDOM test showed... I HAVE ANSWERED IT. WELL, YOU VAGUELY STATED IT WAS NOT TRUE, SO WHAT IS NOT TRUE; ZAREMBAS EXAMINATION? But definitely it will not happen for all the 5 Mukhi beads. And we cannot generalise that a 5 mukhi will have 4 seeds or 6 seeds. No one claimed this, the result is still the same, seeds inside do not necessarily correspond to number of outside mukhis.. AGAIN BEATING AROUND THE BUSH.

PL CHECK IT YOURSELF DONT GO BY OTHER SITES AND PICTURES PEOPLE HAVE SENT EARLIER. DO IT YOURSELF AND THEN TALK TO ME. AGAIN, YOU MISS MY POINT ENTIRELY, I AM STATING AS A GENERAL RULE THAT WE CANNOT SAY THAT IE. ALL 5 MUKHI BEADS WILL NECESSARILY HAVE 5 SEEDS INSIDE, THE TESTS BY ZAREMBA AND CHANDRASHEKHAR HAVE ALREADY PROVEN THAT, AND YOUR YOURSELF ALSO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT, BUT YOU STATE IN SUCH A CASE A BEAD IS DISEASED. YES, ACCORDING TO BOTANICAL KNOWLEDGE IT MAY BE "DISEASED", BUT ACCORDING TO HOLY RUDRAKSHA TRADITION IT IS STILL A HOLY 5 MUKHI BEAD AND AGAIN WE FIND NOTHING IN TRADITION WHICH SAY YOU EXAMINE BEADS ACCORDING TO SEEDS. This could be due to their abnormal growth. This is more of a diseased bead. It happens in the little ones of animals and human being as well that they are born with some abnormality.

PLEASE DO NOT BE OFFENSIVE AND LAUGH AT THE KNOWLEDGE OF HOLY RUDRAKSHA KNOWLEDGE GIVEN BY LORD SHIVA AND HIS SADHAKS, THEN YOU ARE RUINED. PLEASE SHOW RESPECT TO THE DESCRIPTIONS GIVEN BY THE SADHUS AND RISHIS, WE FIND NOTHING IN RUDRAKSHA TRADITION OF WHAT YOU ARE SPEAKING ABOUT CONCERNING THE SEEDS, DO WE? YOU PLEASE ANSWER THIS POINT VERY CLEARLY. So your theory that the number of seeds inside is the source of the power in a bead is therefore proven wrong. My theory is unchallengable. Because I know what I am writing is true to the core. I am not taking anybody's names to prove my point.

Guest guest Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 .. We have never traded through our website in so called 1 mukhi round from Nepal . Same I am compaigning through out our discussions. We have done extensive X-rays on all mukhis which are in our records , which show clearly that the seeds correspond to the number of mukhis . This is what I am telling time and again but because of your adament nature you are not accepting it. Sometimes the seeds are very close to each other , which makes them hard to distinguish in X-rays Same I wrote Mr. Ole, Are you reading this ?? We also have X-ray of the round beads from Nepal which have less developed mukhis in the exterior making them seem mukhiless , and the X-rays show 5 seeds in them . Same I wrote MR. OLE. We have been doing X-ray research in order to develop a very convincing method of distinguishing fake beads from real Maybe in coming future , we would have success in this . Best wishesNeetaRudra Centrehttp://www.rudraksha-ratna.com Thank you Mrs. Neeta, I am really grateful to you for taking time and supporting me and doing good to other devotees. In case this is Siddarth Mishra's followup reply, it is quite obvious that he is not able to refute ANY of the arguments I presented. So to my other fellow members, although I think this mail speaks for itself - please do not be mislead by such empty word jugglery, please read very carefully each of my points to Siddharth Mishra in my previous reply and you will see that I have completely exposed his imaginary claims which he promotes as the absolute truth. Mr. Ole can you write the same thing for Mrs. Neeta ??? Answer or tender appology for writing such a bad language for a teacher. The group has understood that there is no truth in your claims.

Guest guest Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 that beads should be examined and viewed like this, this is a modern concoction only and you cannot refute this. Having said this I of course welcome any research to establish higher standards of rudraksha exchange and distribution. Finally, I appreciate SO much what Chandrashekharj has shared with us so far, he has imho shown the way with his input in this discussion. Thanks to Aadi for forwarding!

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 http://www.hindu.com/2006/02/18/stories/2006021815980200.htm CHENNAI: Like other consumer products, the market for rudraksha beads faces the problem of spurious items, says Panduranga Rao, Director, Indo-Nepal Rudraksha Organisation. Addressing reporters at the inaugural of an exhibition or sale of rudrakshas earlier this week, Mr. Rao said, "Many rudrakshas available in the market are fake." The rudrakshas are categorised according to the number of divisions or lines found on them. The Ekamukhi rudraksha, for instance, has one line running across it. And, when a rudraksha is horizontally cut into two, the number of chambers or seeds seen is equal to the number of lines running over it. Mr. Rao heads a research team that works on rudrakshas. The exhibition at C.P. Art Foundation, Alwarpet, which is open till February 23 from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., will also help the public to identify real and fake rudrakshas. Rare pieces, including those with a single line to those with 21 lines, are displayed at the exhibition. Some are exclusive pieces that are available only in Nepal. The cost of pieces for sale range from 22 paise to Rs.7 lakh. regards Greg www.spacetrader.com.au a_jagawat wrote: Dear All, A round Ekmukhi is present with the Son in Law of the home minister of Rajasthan. It was gifted 20 years back. A Jain Sadhu visited his place and gifted it to him. I will try to get the photograph of this bead. According to him the bead rotates while it is kept in hand. I want to test his claims. One of my close friends who is in South Africa had also seen a piece many years back. It was there with his Guruji. According to him this bead used to rotate while kept in hand. So many mouths and so many claims. I will try to find out the whole truth related to ek Mukhi. I have also seen the photographs of the bead on the website. It is not round first of all. Secondly the beads like that are culutured in Haridwar. They are round and real. But they are not natural and are available at the price of 2700 Rs onwards. I have seen lot of them. They too are not round. Regards Alok PS: Truth is difficult and bitter. But illusions taste the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
