About Rudraksha. What to know before you choose.

Rudraksha are the dried seeds of the Elaeocarpus tree, worn and used for japa by Shaivites and seekers for centuries. A rudraksha is known by its mukhis, the natural lines that run from end to end, and our shelf holds single rudraksha, pendants and malas of 27, 54 and 108, from Nepal and from Java. Each listing names the mukhi, the origin, the size and how it is strung or capped. A rudraksha marked energised is checked by hand and energised by one of our acharyas, in your name, after your order is confirmed and before it is packed, at no extra cost, and the rite is photographed and filmed for you. If you prefer to charge a mala yourself under your guru's guidance, the plain malas are sent without a rite. What a rudraksha is believed to bring is a matter of faith; we promise no outcome. Delivered across India.

What does mukhi mean?
A mukhi is one of the natural lines that run from one end of the rudraksha to the other. A five mukhi rudraksha has five, and is the most common; those with fewer or many more lines are rarer, which is why they cost more.
Where do your rudraksha come from?
From Nepal and from Java, as each listing says. Those from Nepal are usually larger with deeper lines; those from Java are smaller and lighter. A rudraksha marked energised is checked by hand by one of our acharyas when you order.
Can I have a mala without the rite?
Yes. The plain malas are sent without a rite, for seekers who prefer to charge the mala themselves under their guru's guidance.
