RUDRAKSHA



In sanskrit, the word Rudraksha consists with words of  'RUDRA' and 'AKSHA'in which Rudra denotes to Lord Shiva and aksha refers to tear. It is believed that when Lord Shiva was in his deep meditation, a drop of tear fell of his eye which grew into the devine fruit, that is Rudraksha. It is also said that one who wear this devine fruit achieves eternal blessing and is deemed closest to Lord Shiva himself. Rudraksha is mainly found in Nepal and Java Sumatra Island, and found one face(Mukhi) to fourteen face and an unique kind is called GAURI SHANKAR.
