Rudhraksha is one of the most potent symbols used in Hinduism. It is considered to be the most potent manifestation of the Cosmic Force.Rudraksha is the seed of a particular tree species which usually grows at a certain altitude in the mountains – mainly in the Himalayan region. Unfortunately, most of these trees were used to make railway sleepers, so there are very few of them remaining in India. Today, they are mostly found in Nepal, Burma, Thailand or Indonesia. They are there in some parts of the Western Ghats in South India, but the best quality ones come from a certain altitude in Himalayas because somehow the soil, atmosphere, and everything influences it. These seeds have a very unique vibration Rudhraksha is a blessing from Lord Shiva himself to protect mankind from worldly sufferings and miseries. The term ‘Rudhraksha’ is used to refer to both the fruit as well as Rudhraksha tree. Etymologically the word Rudhraksha means-the eye of Rudra [Shiva]. The legend has it that the tree sprang from the tear drop of Rudra, hence Rudhraksha is the object of veneration. This Rudhraksha is closest to Shiva’s heart. It is extremely sacred. Rudhraksha is often believed to symbolize the link between the mortal world and the higher worlds. Indians have used Rudhraksha beads traditionally. Yogis and Monks have found that merely wearing the Rudhraksha beads gave them astonishingly tremendous amount of tranquility, and concentration that helped them meditate for a longer period of time with spectacular control over their mind
