Guest guest Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 The length of the navratna chain depends on the size/density of the arragement of gems. However, it is easy to hide under a shirt, for the men. Because the largest gems are still much smaller than the rudraksham. The wiring on the ones from Rudre Center (which is where I got mine) is delicate looking,so it isn't obvious, but strong, so it doesn't break. For the ladies, of course, it just looks like a pretty, jeweled ornament. There are also navratna pendant/lockets and rings. A pendant would be easily hidden. A ring would hardly be noticed. One advantage to wearing the navratna: As you are aware there are prescribed weights to astrological gems-- in ratti or carats. There are also rules about wearing certain gems on certain fingers. This doesn't seem to apply, when all nine gems are worn together in a chain, pendant, or ring. Thanks, K. , v992003 <no_reply> wrote: > Dear Karisprowl > > Many thanks for your reply.
