Importance of Wearing Wrist Malas

 

The rudraksha neck mala is highly important for gaining the blessings

of Lord Shiva and aiding the neurophysiology of the body. However the

wrist should take precedence when one is specifically seeking Moksa

or " Liberation " . In the " Srimad Devi Bhagavatam " , 11th Skand, Chapter

IV, Parts 1 to 21, there is a sequence of wearing mentioned that

includes wearing the holy rudraksha on the wrist specifically to gain

Moksa. The sequence is as follows:

 

Interpretation of the above paragraph would lead one to believe that

the most important part where rudraksa is worn, is around the wrist

for attaining Moksa. One step further would be to hold rudraksa in

the hand during meditation or Puja rituals. The hands and fingers

hold great importance specific to Chakra points and Nyasa which are

processes of empowerment to the body during meditation or Puja.

Chapter IV, Part 37 of the Srimad Devi Bhagavatam mentions: " A rosary

of 26 beads, 50 beads, 16 beads and 12 beads should be worn

respectively on head, chest, arms and wrists. " Wearing 12 beads of

choice is best for the wrist mala.
