Meaning, Uses, and Benefits of Rudraksha Beads

The term "Rudraksha" comes from "Rudra" (a name for Lord Shiva) and "Aksha" (meaning eye), so it translates to "the eye of Shiva." The seeds are believed to have originated from the tears of Lord Shiva.

The mala, traditionally made of 108 beads and one "guru" bead, is believed to offer:

• Spiritual Protection – Shields against negative energies and evil eye
• Mental Calmness – Reduces stress, anxiety, and helps with focus
• Health Benefits – Improves blood circulation, balances energy
• Chakra Balancing – Especially effective if combined with other stones or metals
• Increased Willpower – Boosts confidence and clarity of thought.
