Gauri Shankar Rudraksha

 

The Gauri Shankar Rudraksha is a bead of two naturally joined

rudraksha. It is considered highly auspicious by the holy men of

India. Nagababas, sadhus, swamis, gurus, aghoras, tantrikas and

ascetics use Gauri Shankar for spiritual purposes and protection. It

is known to heighten meditative states and recommended for those

seeking "Oneness" with God. A sannyasi wearing a garland or "Kantha"

of 32 beads of Gauri Shankar is said to become Lord Shiva incarnate.

 

The Gauri Shankar rudraksha is also noted for its influence as the

unified and identified form of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. In

this regard, it assists with matrimonial harmony enabling both

husband and wife identify with each other as "One". When worshipped

it also bestows family comforts, fertility, peace, harmony, joy,

happiness and loyalty. The Puranas state that a bead of Gauri

Shankar Rudraksha is regarded the best for family life.

 

When counting the total number of mukhis or facets on different

beads of Gauri Shankar Rudraksha, they are similar to other high

mukhi rudraksha beads except the body parts are naturally joined

together. For example, a Gauri Shankar may occur in beads of 9

mukhi, 10 mukhi, 11 mukhi or more.

 

The 9 Mukhi Gauri Shankar is a bead with a total of 9 facets showing

clearly on the joined beads. When wearing this particular Gauri

Shankar, the values and energies of Gauri Shankar enhances the

energies of a 9 Mukhi Goddess Durga bead. Thus the benefits and

blessings are double.
