Guest guest Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 Namaste Gina, I don't recall any of the ancient Holy Texts mentioning that higher mukhi rudrakshas (15 and upwards) would contain collective properties of lower mukhis in addition to their own individual ones. According to Sanskrit texts, each bead certainly has its own deity and planetary ruler except for mukhis 10, 11, 14, 15 and above. Indeed each bead is different and works differently. But they can also work together when strung on the same mala. For example, 16 and 17 mukhis can be used for success in monetary matters. 7 and 8 mukhis can be strung for removing obtacles and bringing blessings from Mahalaxmi, etc. Some info about 15 mukhi for you below : Highly rare Rudraksha. This bead represents Pashupati and has impact on the wearer's mind like improving intuitive, Abstract and Lateral thinking. In addition the wearer finds high energy levels to put into action his thoughts and ideas. The 15 Mukhi is a very rare rudraksha. This represents Lord Pashupati and is specially beneficial for economic progress. Its possesor is neither bereft of wealth nor inflicted by any kinds of skin diseases. This Rudraksa is a Highly Auspicious Rudraksa that influences the gaining of Mukti from Paasha and helps to prevent the loss of attainment of Moksa in this lifetime. This Rudraksa also pacifies emotional disturbance in the mind caused by the limitations caused by Paasha or bondage. The Lord Pashupati Rudraksa supports the Spiritual Path to Moksa in this physical lifetime and enhances Rudra Consciousness that is an aspect of Consciousness based in the process of actively destroying ignorance, suffering and pain that is produced by bondage and or attachment. Importance of 15 mukhi Rudraksha This is an immense powerful Rudraksa for those working with Spiritual Techniques to accomplish Mukti that is freedom from bondage and Moksa that is Liberation in this physical lifetime. Pashu means individual soul or Jeeva , Pati means Lord and God and Master and Siva all as one in the same. Pashupati is Lord of Individuals , Lord Siva Lord of animals. According to Saiva Siddhanta the individual soul that is Jeeva by nature is infinite, pervasive and omniprescent. However due to what is described as impurities individuals sometimes experience themselves as finite, limited and ignorant. These impurities that can sometimes bind an individual are called Paasha and are three in nature. They are anava and karma and maya. Literal meaning of Paasha is a rope. It is comprised of three strands that are anava the impurity of ignorance, karma the impurity of action and maya the power of obscuration .These three can tie the individual soul into bondage. Anava is ignorance. It is a beginningless positive inert energy that can causes delusion however it can be destroyed. It is said that this is possibly the original cause of an individuals bondage. Karma forges bondage of the individual resulting from actions of thought work or deed. Karma can produce merit and demerit that can tie the individual to the wheel of birth and death. Karma can also be pacified and destroyed. Maya provides the individual with its bodies instruments and objects of experience. It creates the universe for ones advancement though under the influence of ignorance it can become misused and become a fetter. Maya can be destroyed . According to Kashmir Saivism individual souls are called bound or Pashu due to these three limitations caused by impurities. As individual souls move forward on thier Spiritual Path their true nature manifests that is eternal, real, identical with Lord Siva and essentially unlimited, all pervading and are an ever conscious luminosity. Liberation comes when the soul remembers its identity with Lord Siva. Once all the obstacles are removed this remembering can take place in this physical lifetime . The Lord Pashupati Rudraksa is the only one found to date that works with Mukti and Moksa in this manner and is an exceptional Rudraksa for the Spiritual Path. /15mukhi.htm , " paxetamo " <mirmade wrote: > > Namaste, > > I read that all higher mukhi beads (15 & up),in addition to their own > special individual properties, ALSO contain the collective > energies/properties of beads below ( 1 thru 14 mukhi). > Is this true? > > If so, does that mean if I can only wear one bead some day, that if I > wear the 15-mukhi,it is like wearing all the beads 1-14,plus the > energies of the 15? > I am not sure I understand this correctly,as I thought each bead > was " inhabited/ruled " by a particular god who wielded their sphere of > influence over that bead in certain ways,making each bead different? > > Please take pity on my ignorance, and enlighten me that I may govern > myself with wise choices.
