What is Rudraksha: Rudraksha word is related to Hindu Religion. Rudraksha tree and seed both are called Rudraksha. In Sanskrit Rudraksham means Rudraksha fruit as well as Rudraksha tree.
Rudraksha tree grows on mountains and hilly region of Nepal, Indonesia, Java, Sumatra and Burma. Its leaves are green in colour and the fruits are brown in color and sour in taste. The Rudraksha fruits also adorn the human beings because of spiritual values.
 

Found in Ancient Indian Scriptures and texts: From ancient times, the power of Holy Rudraksha beads have been scripted in various religious texts like ShivmahaPurana, Shreemaddevibhagwat, Padma Purana, ling Purana, Ashtamalikopnishad, Nirnayasindhoo, Mantramaharnava, Mahakaal Sanmhita, Rudrakshajabalopnishad, Vrihajjabalopnishad, Shivaswarodaya and Sarvollastantra.

As per ancient Indian scriptures mentioned above Rudraksha is evolved from the eyes of Lord Shiva hence, it’s called Rudraksha. Rudra means Shiva and Aksha means eyes. Aksha also means a group of alphabets in Sanskrit called (Varna). As per details found in Halayudh Kosha(Ancient Scripture) letters from A to ksha that is 51 letters are called Aksha . Therefore, Rudraksha can be called as a seed in which a group of Sanskrit letters called Varna reside.

Mukhi or Multifaceted Rudraksha: As per details found in the Purana there are fourteen kinds of Rudraksha, which are called Mukhi or faceted Rudraksha. Mukhi or faces of Rudraksha are deep lines found on the surface of the Rudraksha from bottom to the top hole. The number of these lines decides about the type or Mukhi Rudraksha. For example, if a Rudraksha has three such lines it is called 3 Mukhi or 3 face Rudraksha.

Mala or Rosary: Rosary made out of Rudraksha Beads in the auspicious numbers like (108+1, 54+1, 27+1) is called Rudraksha Mala. The +1 bead is called as Sumeru(it is not crossed while chanting) which is considered as boundary for returning in reverse direction for further counting. Mala is used for wearing as well as for purpose of Japa (Chanting Mantra for Spiritual attainments). It is used to count Mantra in the above figure (108,54,27). The same Mala is not used for wearing as well as Japa. Mala rests on ring finger and middle finger is used for Japa. Index and smallest finger are considered as inauspicious for touching the Mala during Japa process. Rudraksha Rosary is considered as the only Rosary, which can be used for Japa of all kinds. The details found in the scriptures say that Rudraksha rosary should be worn after proper sanctification with Mantra. 

Perfect for Body, Mind & spiritual gains: Rudraksha evokes power in the body, which fights against diseases hence improving overall health. As per Ayurveda, Rudraksha strengthens the body constitutions. It removes the blood impurities and strengthens the body substance. It removes the bacteria inside as well as outside the Human Body. Rudraksha removes the headache, cough, paralysis, and blood pressure, heart disease and maternity problems. Wearing of Rudraksha brings glow on the face, which results in calm and charming personality. Rudraksha rosary is used for Japa. The process of Japa increases spiritual power and self-confidence to move in multi direction of life. Therefore, Rudraksha seeds are found be useful for providing health benefits as well as helps in gaining spiritual success. Wearing Rudraksha results in the destruction of sins from previous birth that cause difficulties in the present life. The men who are Mlechchha, chandaal (impious and inhumane) or full of all kinds of vices can get the form of Lord Rudra by wearing Rudraksha. This helps in getting rid of all the sins and gets him to attain the supreme goal of his life.

Constellations (Zodiac significance):  Rudraksha is used for removing malefic planetary effect. There are twenty seven Constellations. Each has control of one of the Nine Planets. Each constellation is controlled by some related Rudraksha. Therefore according to these constellations, various multifaceted Rudraksha are worn (Control planets) and is found useful in multidiscipline. The Multifaceted or Mukhi Rudraksha which has various planets residing on it, always receive energy from related planet. Its power of receiving energy is tremendous and it works like a reservoir. It not only receives energy, it is also known for emitting energy continuously. 

Removing evil spirit effects : Rudraksha is considered to be a spiritual bead. Used since ancient time for increasing the spiritual power, self confidence, courage and for building a positive attitude in multidiscipline area. As per the ancient Indian scripture like Purana, it is well known that Each Rudraksha is linked with Particular deity. This Positive Power in terms of Deva or Devi always protects the wearer from Negative Powers and enmity and provides a powerful shield against all negativities.

Importance for spiritual attainments: The word Rudraksha has great importance as far as Indian culture as well as Hindu religion is concerned. This is due to its relation with Lord Shiva who is lord of all Deva( so called Mahadeva) and its role in meditation and spiritual attainments. 

Why Rudraksham :  

How Rudraksham Started

Started by a Professional Electrical Engineer with the Blessings of his Great Guru Yogi Shree Santosh Nathji. Shri Harinesh Kumar Jain(Director Rudraksham) has been a great devotee of Lord Hanuman since childhood. He came across many sages and Sadhus of various Sampradaya and got to know about Rudraksha and meditation about 8 - 10 Years ago.

In Indian Culture, everybody has respect for Bhagwa cloths (saffron worn by Sadhus). This Sanskaar gave him blind faith in “bhagwa-wearing” Sadhus. This immense trust led him into loosing lot of money and religious faith one fine day. It was then that he realized that every person wearing Bhagwa is not a Sage or Saint.

This reason led to serious soul-searching, that people are loosing faith on ancient  and religious notions and this eventually resulting in loss of respect and belief towards the ancient knowledge given by Saints.

When the religious beliefs are not giving results, people are forced to believe that either the text is wrong or these things do not exist. This thought process is fast damaging one of the oldest Hindu religion and Sanatan Dharma.

This became the basis for acquiring the knowledge on Rudraksha & Meditation to  serve the people better and rebuild their faith in religion.

 After reading lots of scriptures, realization struck upon him that “without a true Guru one cannot attain any stage of meditation or the supreme path towards God ". His prayers now had come down to a single question " when will you come to me as a Guru ". Day & night the same thought kept haunting his mind. When?

God showered his extreme blessings when after 30 days of this thought, he met the man who was destined to be his Guruji. After six months of testing time, Guruji finally blessed him & granted Guru-Diksha.

The blessing was the driving force in starting a company to provide Genuine religious aid to people. The aim was to provide spiritual solutions to the mankind that has relevance in the ancient text.

Commitment of Providing Genuine things: Rudraksham started five years back with the commitment to provide 100 percent genuine spiritual items on a reasonable Price and thus spreading the highest Sanatan dharma with the supreme blessings of Lord Shiva.

Rudraksham team is continuously working in the field of providing the spiritual items all over the world with an Authenticity Certificate.
