21 Types of Rudraksha and Their Benefits
Rudraksha beads hold great significance in Hindu culture, symbolizing protection and spiritual strength. According to ancient legend, Lord Shiva shed tears during deep meditation, which later transformed into Rudraksha seeds. These sacred seeds grow on the Elaeocarpus ganitrus tree, primarily found in the Himalayan region, hence the name “Himalayan seeds.”
These beads aren’t just symbolic; they offer many practical benefits, from spiritual growth to healing properties. Each type of Rudraksha has a distinct purpose, with 21 varieties classified by the number of vertical lines, or mukhis, on each bead. Regardless of caste, gender, or religion, anyone can wear Rudraksha beads and experience their positive energy.
