Guest guest Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 Narasimhaye Namasteyji ,first of all thanks to you for clearing almost all points, now how do you identify a rudraksh is a genuine or fake. awaiting your advise. regards narasimhaye <no_reply > wrote: Namaskar Dr. Sengupta,The Blessings Process was posted yesterday in a message addressed to you.Most of the religious books (Shiva Purana, Rudrakshajapalopanishad, Srimad Devi Bhagavatam, Skanda Purana, etc.) mention that there is great karmic merit by giving rudraksha to another person, whether its a family member, relative or friend. The giver receives 1000-fold blessings and the receiver also receive blessings. 'Spousal relations' means sex. If engaging in the act, rudraksha must be removed.If sleeping on the same bed as your wife and there is no 'spousal relations' during certain nights, rudraksha can be worn to bed. Rudraksha still retain their energies, properties and sanctify when placed upon the altar overnight. In the morning, perform the usual religious ritual of taking a bath and then putting on the beads with the mantra Om Namah Shivaya.Regarding sphatik and other malas, yes they should also be removed when engaging in spousal relations.All holy malas such as rudraksha, sphatik and tulsi, etc., can be worn together or separately. There is no taboo about wearing them together and no negative outcomes as they are sacred items.Om Namah Shivaya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
