Guest guest Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 Hari Om Dear Jatin, Thanks for your kind comments and thoughts about the magnetic energy of this forum. We try our best to answer questions and discuss topics if we know the answers. If we don't know the answers, we ask one another. 1) Collector size rudraksha beads, apart from being larger in size, contain more electromagnetic properties than smaller beads. 2) Yes its correct that your 14 mukhi bead can be used as a separate mala and placed on your forehead during prayers, puja and meditation before you wear it. Its up to your personal preference and comfort whether you wish to wear your Personal Mala of 1 to 13 mukhi, Ganesh rudraksha and Gauri Shankar as one mala or to add the 14 mukhi to make it a Siddh Mala or continue to wear it as it is. Please take a bit of time to meditate on this and the answer will come to you. 3) About your Shani Yantra, it is generally recommended that a Yantra be placed in the north/north-west direction facing the south/south-east direction in a room. The Mantra for Shani is: " Om Sham Shanaishcharaya Namah Om " and its to be recited on Saturdays. 4) Another way of thinking about the divinities in Hinduism identifies Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva as each representing one of the three primary aspects of the divine in Hinduism, known collectively as the Trimurti. In the Trimurti system, Brahma is the creator, Vishnu is the maintainer or preserver, and Shiva is the destroyer or transformer. Shiva is not always depicted as meditating - in His form as Lord Nataraj also dances the Tandava dance. Lord Vishnu (the Preserver) does not meditate because He is busy looking after the preservation of everything. There is no superior god/power above them. 5) Websites where you can read more about Lord Shiva: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiva http://www.hinduwebsite.com/hinduism/siva.asp http://www.lotussculpture.com/shiva1.htm http://hinduism.about.com/od/lordshiva/Lord_Shiva.htm http://allsaivism.tripod.com/whois.html 6) There is no difference between Mantra and Yantra, both are as good as each other. Its the bhakti and faith of the worshipper that matters. 7) It is part of Shiva's nature to meditate for the good of all mankind - He sits in Samadhi on Mt. Kailash and even while in the state of Samadhi, He can bless and hear our prayers. 8) At Rudra Centre's website, there are many testimonials and I'm sure there are about 3 or more very good ones about 13 mukhi's good effects.
