Guest guest Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 Anil ji, I have worn the 8 mukhi kantha and the Ganesha Kantha (both Java beads). The biggest change that happened with these is that I evaluated everything before speaking, so as to try not to lie! These really do free you from the sin of lying. I realized that in the course of the day, just to be diplomatic, or politically correct, I would end up using words which were lies (white or whatever color!) I had to stop doing that, because every time I would do it, it made me guilty. I felt really bad. Of course that meant that many times, in order to be diplomatic, I just had to learn to keep my mouth closed. The process of this " think before you speak " translates into " think before you act. " One ends up internalizing ones thoughts and energies. Upon meditation, when you do act subsequently, it is powerful....obstacles start vanishing. It is your own energy, your own life-force (your Upa guru/ the 'ansh' of Lord Shiva) in you that you end up using to diminish obstacles in and around you. The 8 mukhi is also connected with planet Rahu. I always wondered why it was the Ganesha beads are connected with planet Rahu. And now, after having experienced these magnificent beads, I know why: Lord Ganesha takes care of the obstacles that planet Rahu places in your way. It gives you the wisdom that makes you overcome the obstacles. It makes you act so that the inimical planets cannot bestow further obstacles on you (When you do not sin, you are not punished-- you deliberately end the vicous cycle that planet Rahu inflicts on you). The cosmos blesses you when you bless yourself with these beads. Om Ganeshaya Namah Om Namah Shivaya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
