Power of Rudraksha to heal your Body and Mind - WeRIndia

According to the Indian epics, Rudrakshas were believed to be created from the eyes of Lord Shiva.

In ancient India, several Yogis and Maharishis used to wear chains made with Rudrakshas by believing that they would improve concentration and spiritual power. It is believed to reduce stress and promote health.

Some recent discoveries also revealed that the seeds of Rudraksha have electromagnetic power and thus can affect the physical and psychological health of humans.

Due to these studies, the tradition of wearing Rudrakshas has been rising globally.

Ayurveda claims that Rudraksha eliminates toxins from the body and fights against the harmful bacteria. The researchers of Banaras University concluded that Rudraksha improves blood flow in the body and the functioning of heart as well.

Rudraksha trees are found only in Southeast Asian countries. 70% of these trees are native to Indonesia, 25% are in Nepal and the remaining are in India.

Rudrakshas are many types according to the faces on them. Many believe that Eka Mukhi Rudraksha (Rudraksha with a single face) is very rare and the Rudraksha with 21 faces is invaluable. The normal Rudraksha that is available in the market is Pancha Mukhi (Rudraksha with five faces).

Each Rudraksha has its own benefits. Eka Mukhi Rudraksha improves the health of both body and mind. Dwi Mukhi (Rudraksha with two faces) promotes positive attitude in wearers and strengthens relationships; it is ideal for relationship with spouse.

It even cures the early stages of paralysis.

Nava Mukhi (Rudraksha with nine faces) is believed to improve strength and is ideal for women as it is effective in preventing miscarriages. This Rudraksha treats heart and skin problems. It boosts energy, dynamism and helps in attaining goals and riches.

But, beware there are man-made Rudrakshas which resemble the original Rudrakshas. They don’t have healing power. Real Rudrakshas rotate clockwise when they are kept on a copper coin and bring another copper coin close to it. This is due to the electromagnetic force in the Rudraksha.
