need help regarding the forms of gems

[Guest guest]

Dear Rajinder Singh

 

Wow you are way off on this one......Gujarat cuts almost 95% of the worlds

diamonds and the Mumbai Gem Market has some of the finest stones in the

world.......your last comment really doesnt work either as it speaks of self

education........is easier and safer to rely on the International Gemologist

Certificates for any gemstone that are issued in all countries includeing

India.......they have standards and Rudra Center has supplied some of our

gemstones to

clients with Gemologist Certificates.........your message wasnt harsh......it

just

wasnt correct.........was your experience only and everyones experience is

different........by saying dont purchase any stones from an Indian retialer you

are missing out on a majority of cut gemstones that go through Gujarat and the

Mumbai Gemstone Market Place

 

makes no sense not to buy for those who have the most expertise and business

in cutting the gemstones and the Gemology Certificates to prove it

Namaste Ketan,

 

(When Sri Richard Shaw Brown has time to come online, he will be

able to answer your questions with gemmological expertise).

 

(Big Brother Alan Scherr, are you around? Your insights will be

highly appreciated, sincere thanx

 

Meantime, to cut a long story short, all gemstones in the world (in

this Kali Yuga) contain one flaw or another. No 2 stones are alike.

If you want highest grade gems with little or minute flaws (almost

flawless), we are talking tens of thousands of dollars.

 

Uparatna (secondary gems) can be used as substitutes. An

accomplished Jyotishi will be able to advise you about how many

carats of an uparatna to obtain in order to achieve the same results

similar to a costly Ratna.

 

If you happen to be tantric and see no duality, then all gems are

flawless and one then leads by example by becoming a "Living Gem",

in your own right. Aversion and non-aversion are 2 sides of the

same coin

 

Bountiful blessings,

Jai Bholenath
