Resource for information & other question....

[Guest guest]

Namaste Gina, both books are fine in the sense that they both

contain different information. The one titled Power of Rudraksha

contains all the info about mukhis, points out which mukhis are for

what ailments. From this you can roughly gauge the Chakras and

endocrine glands they are associated with.

 

The other book by Suhas Roy elaborates on experiments done with

electrical equipment to measure the electric properties of rudraksha

in different mukhis. They are individual books in their own right I

guess.

 

So far, rudraksha therapists and Ayurvedic physicians haven't

published any material on the use of rudraksha in remedies. However

one day I'm sure several will be made available once their findings

and research are completed.

 

When the beads are worn and handled with care, i.e. not tugged at,

etc, its ok to soak them together in oil. But if you wish, you can

soak them individually too. I've found that oil doesn't do any harm

to the caps or thread/cord. Except they get a little oily afterwards

but oil can be strained off by using paper kitchen towels. After

that, residue oil moisturizes the skin when we put the mala on again.

 

If you 'see', pray, meditate and focus on the 15 mukhi as being the

representation of the Supreme Absolute (God), it is possible to evoke

and harness its 'spiritual essence' as such. There have been many

folks in the past here, who have done so with different mukhi beads

and succeeded in their sadhanas with bhakti. The mantra is : Om

Pashupataye Namah. The other mantra that is used universally for all

rudraksha beads is Om Namah Shivaya.

 

The Lord Pashupati 15 Mukhi Rudraksha also represents Lord, God,

Master and Shiva All As One In The Same. Meaning " One in All and All

in One " .

 

Puja can be a simple as lighting a ghee lamp, offering incense,

flowers, camphor, nuts and fruits, then chanting the mantra. But if

you would like to perform the full puja, its in the next message..

 

Ask whatever and whenever you want. This is what this Group is for

There is always someone who will respond and on occasion some friends

may have the time to write in about their individual experiences too.
