Answer to Nepal Rudraksha price levels

[Guest guest]

wrong again however am seeing you are still out there trying to

discredit businesses.........with the Maoist Rebels takeing over the

Bandhars from east to west they are isolateing Kathmandu and

extorting money from merchants to support their war efforts on the

King of Nepal................. and the Holy Rudraksha have become

more and more difficult to extract from the country of

origin.........today it is a risky business getting the Holy Beads

out of the country by road as many Maoist Guerillas from Nepal have

also relocated and linked up with Indian Guerillas on the India side

of the border in the area of the Gangetic Plain near

Bengal........Rudra Center supports the efforts of the collector

Families in the Arun Valley of Nepal however the nearest courier

service is in Kathmandu.......to get to Kathmandu from Arun Valley

where the Rudraksha Forest is takes many dangerous days travel that

many are now not willing to make anymore......suppliers in Kathmandu

are haveing same difficulty trying to get Holy Beads out of

forest..........basicly only way in and out of Arun Valley safely is

a helicopter direct from Kathmandu or Bengali area to make pick

ups.......Rudra Center is also supporting artisan families in Mumbai

with profits from worlwide distribution and partially supports an

Ashram there.....money is also given to support the Temple there in

Mumbai that Blesses and Energizes our cleints Holy Items.....Rudra

Center Business Policy is that no one owns the money in this

Age......the money is continually passed on to others to increase

their standard of liveing and quality of life.....the more we

distribute the more people we can hire in Mumbai so they can buy

shoes and eat a better diet..........The basic difficulty for all

Rudraksha Distributors from Nepal to India is that we can no longer

get the amount of Rudraksha Beads out of Nepal that we were able to

in recent years....the suppliers are reluctant to travel due to

Maoist Guerillas that roam the Bandhars and the roads of

Nepal.....Helicopter rental is expensive and our clients will only

see the prices going higher in the comeing years as the supply is

squeezed to the point of nothing comeing out of Nepal unless a

helicopter is rented from Bengal.....There are no tremendous profits

made in the Rudraksha Business unless you are buying for other

businesses like AstrologyMantra.com that sell the 5 Mukhi for $100

each as they say their Blessings and Energizeing is better than

everyone else....we went through a lot of this information when you

and your group tried to shut down our Rudraksha group site with your

same nonsense years ago......and now you and your buddies are

starting it up again here on this site.......the only new addition to

the news from Nepal that we have not explained to our clients is the

method of getting into and out of the Arun Valley by way of

helicopter so we can get around the Maoist Guerrillas....so far so

good.......of course now we have to worry about when the Guerillas

will get stinger missles that can shoot down helicopters in the outer

regions and we are hopeing this will never take place and that soon

peace will reign again in Nepal and business can continue without

haveing to pay Guerillas tokens in order to do business by land

travel.....is a realy mess in Nepal and although we have good

contacts our prices have gone through the roof due to the increase in

prices from the dealers in Kathmandu that take the risk to bring out

the many precious beads from Arun Valley.........of course this

message will only bring more questions of chaos from you and your

group however to others it has given us the opportunity to explain

part of the price increases seen over the years as the Maoist

Insurrection has increased and will explain the non availability of

some Rudraksha Beads in the future no matter the price until peace

again reigns in Nepal........can only hope that you and your group go

to Nepal and meet with the rebels yourself

stayed and gone beyond those levels, also introducing the concept

of 'collector beads'.

tremendous money on these holy items. I am also sure that the price

levels are mostly driven up by the popular demand. It would be

interesting to know more about how the commercial Nepali Rudraksha

distribution business actually works and how much the people at the

very bottom of the chain are hopefully rewarded for the increased

money that the customers actually pay for? I know that Nepal is a

very poor country with a lot of suffering and I am following the

current situation there through websites like kantipuronline.com etc.
