Guest guest Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 Dear Devotees, I have a question hope you will share your views. As we know that Lord shiva is eternal supreme. And we can't imagine lord shiva without rudraksha beads. Does this mean that Rudraksha beads are also eternal? The falling of lord shiva's tears on earth and growing of rudraksha trees could be a divine lila of him. My main point here Is Rudraksha beads are from the begining (Since lord appeared on kailash in a 'Sagun Avatar'). If yes that means rudraksha beads are part and parce of his eternal personality and we are blessed to wear them our human body just because of his causeless mercy. Please forgive me if any offense..

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 Dear Nileshji In Siva Purana references I have only been able to follow the history of the Tears of Lord Siva as far back as Vidyesvara Samhita Siva said O Mahesani formerly I had been performing penance for thousands of divine year. Although I had controlled it rigorously my mind was in flutter. Out of sport, I being self possessed just opened my eyes. O Goddess from a desire of helping the worlds drops of tears fell from my beautiful half closed eyes. From those tear drops there cropped up the Rudraksa plants They became immobile. In order to bless the devotees they were given to the four varnas devoted to worship of Vishnu There are also other stories about the origin of the Holy Rudraksa that take place after the Mankind has already been established and also in this reference it states the tears were shed to help the worlds and it seems there were already devotees of Lord Vishnu to give the Rudraksa to for worship Now this will probably lead to more questions however hope this helps Thanks and Take Care Mitra DharmaDev In a message dated 9/6/2004 1:44:37 PM Pacific Standard Time, nilesh_chandode writes: > > > Dear Devotees, > > I have a question hope you will share your views. > As we know that Lord shiva is eternal supreme. > And we can't imagine lord shiva without rudraksha > beads. > > Does this mean that Rudraksha beads are also eternal? > The falling of lord shiva's tears on earth and growing > of rudraksha trees could be a divine lila of him. > > My main point here Is Rudraksha beads are from the > begining (Since lord appeared on kailash in a 'Sagun > Avatar').

Guest guest Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 Dear DharmadevJi, Thanks for your reply. As you said many other questions will arise from this.. and yes there will be. However I am happy with the concept that Lord shiva made it possible for humans to wear rudraksha beads. It is his mercy and divine passtime. And also not to forget Rudraksha beads are part and parcel of his personality.
