wearing rudraksh mala while going thru security checks at airport

[Guest guest]

Namaskar Rajesh,

 

There are no problems with security checks at airports when wearing

rudrakshas in and out of the country. Rudrakshas are not sharp

objects. If your beads are big Nepal ones and if placed inside the

luggage bag and scanned, the beads may look like chocolate balls. In

this case you may be questioned simply or asked to show the beads.

Never mention high mukhi beads above 13 mukhis.

 

In some countries if the mala is of very high mukhis and is strung in

expensive gold, its necessary to take it to the customs office at the

airport to obtain a kind of 'receipt' or validation that its a

personal belonging that is being worn out of the country. Upon

return, show the receipt. Everything will be fine.

 

Om Bholenath
