Guest guest Posted May 25, 2004 Report Share Posted May 25, 2004 Thank you Simoneji. Yes, I am very happy to have it, blessed again in the temple and wearing it. Also it was so coincidental that I met a person in the temple who is organizing "Maha Rudram" classes in the Chicagoland. I will be attending those classes weekly. According to my mom, even the sounds of Rudram and chamakam in the house is so great and removed all the evils and brings the best to us. One thing I am not yet familiar is the procedure to clean the beads and energize on our own periodically. I got the audio tape/CD from the Rudra center but they are in pure Hindi. I can understand "street" Hindi and not "pure" hindi :-) So I need to find some English instructions on how to do that. Sure, I will keep you all posted with the developments on my side. , "Simone" <syzenith> wrote: > Namaste Mahesh, > > Congratulations! Wonderful to hear you've received the mala!

Guest guest Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 Unlike yantram, rudraksham do not have to be re-energized, as they never lose their power. Because they are the tears of Lord Shiva, and physical manifestations of Him, they are "born divine." I have never re-engerized mine. In fact, Some of my beads have never been blessed, and they work quite well. To clean them, dip a soft toothbrush into a vegeatble oil with a long shelf life, and scrub the bead gently. Most people use either olive oil mixed with a little sandalwood oil, or mustard oil. I now use jojoba oil. Thanks, Kari , "kmahesh0" <kmahesh0> wrote: > Thank you Simoneji.

Guest guest Posted May 28, 2004 Report Share Posted May 28, 2004 Hello Dear Maheshji I also had excellent experinces with Rudra center, I have visited Ms Neeta in India & shri Mahadevji in USA. What a lovely organisations. They are wonderful I have some beads & Malas from them. Thanks for sharing your Chanting group, can you give more deatils ? I like to join some time, I am not too far from Chicago, just 150 miles east. Lots of love & GOD bless Ashokbaba kmahesh0 <kmahesh0 wrote: All - Finally I got my mala (4 five-mukhi and 1 ek-mukhi) from the Rudraksha center. I had it blessed by the Hindu priest at a Shiva Temple. He kept the mala on the Shiva Lingam and blessed and started wearing it from yesterday. I was very happy to have all these. The service at the Rudraksha-ratna is just great. Shri Mahadevji was so kind and cooperative. He sent me an audio cassette and a CD for doing dhans and other pujas. In the meanwhile, I also found a set of bhaktas who chant Rudrams every Thursday in the Chicagoland. I will be attending that from this Thursday. This is my second day wearing the rudrakshas. The ek-mukhi bead has a distinct odor where as the five-mukhis aren't. The odor is more authentic :-) Has anyone experienced this?? Thanks Mahesh To send an email to: / Friends. Fun.

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2004 Report Share Posted May 30, 2004 Namaste Mahesh, Wonderful to hear you're going to attend weekly classes on Maha Rudram and yes, your mom is right! Sis Kariji has kindly given some tips on cleaning rudraksha beads in response to you. Agree with her. Alternatively once in a while if the beads get dirty, its ok to immerse them in gentle soapy water (not too much detergent) then use a soft toothbrush for removing grit or dust. Lay in gentle sunshine to dry naturally. Then oil them with almond or olive oil mixed with some drops of sandalwood essential oil. Or use jojoba as suggested by Kariji. Jojoba also gives a nice healthy shine that brings out the natural tones of the beads. Cold pressed carrier oils (the type they use for massage or aromatherapy) are great. The English version of the Rudraksha Pujan and Dharan on your tape/CD is in the Files Section of this group. It is also in the "Power of Rudraksha" booklet. Looking forward to hearing your adventures with rudraksham!! Om Namah Shivaya Simone , "kmahesh0" <kmahesh0> wrote: > Thank you Simoneji.

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 Thanks for the instructions. As Kariji recommended, I bought jojoba oil. Also I downloaded the file for puja and it needed some formatting to make it readable. I made those changes. If you would like, I can upload the formatted file.
