Guest guest Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 Namaste Falguna, Thanks for sharing this information with us and the links. To be certain whether the bead bigger than a criket-sized ball is genuine or not, requires authentication by rudraksha experts such as Ms Neetaji of Rudra centre or Sri K. N. Seetha. If devotees are allowed to see it at the temple, a genuine bead will bring blessings. Best wishes. , falguna108 <no_reply wrote: > > Dear Narasimhaye Ji and Members, > > Found this news piece (belonging to Oct 2008): > > http://www.hinduismtoday.com/modules/xpress/hindu-press-international/2008/11/01\ /rare-rudraksha-will-adorn-sri-arunachaleshwarar > > http://www.hindu.com/2008/11/01/stories/2008110153130300.htm > > Does anyone here have more information of this rare rudraksha? > > Please share. > > The news piece says: > " Rare rudraksh > > Tiruvannamalai: A huge and rare `Ekamuga Rudraksh' that weighs about 200 gram, was found among the valuables stored in the temple treasury at Sri Arunachaleshwarar temple in Tiruvannamalai. > > Authorities, who reviewed the stocks of valuables , were amazed by its size, which was slightly bigger than a cricket ball. The rudraksh, decorated with silver `poon,' was donated in 2006 by a devotee. Temple Joint Commissioner Pugazhendiran said that the rudraksh would decorate `utsava moorthi' in `pradosham' days.
