Everything You Need to Know About Rudraksha
FAQ
1. What is Rudraksha?
Rudraksha is a sacred seed traditionally used in Hinduism and Buddhism for prayer, meditation, and spiritual healing. It is believed to be the teardrop of Lord Shiva and is known for its powerful energetic properties.
2. Are your Rudraksha beads authentic?
Yes. All our Rudraksha beads are 100% genuine, lab-tested, and sourced from trusted regions in Nepal and India. We also provide authenticity certification with every purchase.
3. What is a Mukhi and how do I choose the right one?
"Mukhi" means "face" or "segment." Each Rudraksha bead can have a different number of faces (from 1 to 21+), and each type offers specific spiritual and health benefits. You can choose based on your goals (peace, prosperity, focus, protection) or consult with our experts for personalized guidance.
4. Do Rudraksha beads need to be energized before wearing?
Yes. Although Rudraksha has natural power, proper energization (Pran Pratishtha) enhances its effects. We offer pre-energized beads or can guide you through the process if you prefer to do it yourself.
5. Can anyone wear Rudraksha?
Absolutely. Rudraksha is suitable for men and women of all ages, regardless of religion. However, the correct type and usage may vary based on individual needs or doshas (in Ayurveda).
6. How should I wear and maintain Rudraksha beads?
Rudraksha should be worn on clean skin, ideally on a Monday or during a spiritual time. Avoid wearing it during bathing or while visiting funeral grounds. Clean with plain water occasionally and apply a bit of natural oil to preserve the bead.
7. Do you ship internationally?
Yes, we offer worldwide shipping with tracking. All products are securely packed and shipped with care.
8. Can Rudraksha be worn with gemstones or other spiritual tools?
Yes, but it's best to consult a spiritual guide or astrologer to ensure compatibility based on your goals or astrological chart.
9. Do you offer returns or exchanges?
Due to the spiritual nature of Rudraksha, we generally do not accept returns after energization. However, if there is any defect or issue with authenticity, we’re happy to assist with a replacement.
