Rudraksha beads, meaning and legends:
In sanskrit language, Rudra is another name for god Shiva and ksha means “teardrops”, so Rudraksha can be translated as “teardrops of Shiva“. According to Vedic Scriptures, Shiva once went into deep meditation for the well being of all living creatures. When he woke up, tear drops welled down from his eyes on realizing the suffering of living creatures. On reaching the earth, these tears took the form of seeds that germinated into Rudraksha trees (Elaeocarpus ganitrus). The dry seeds from this tree form the sacred Rudraksha beads.
Always according to ancient Vedic texts, these beads are endowed with cosmic powers to elevate the soul and assist on the path of ascension. Shiva himself is always portrayed wearing a Rudraksha beads Mala on his head, arms and hands.
