Rudraksha Bead 3 Mukhi

Rudraksha Bead 3 Mukhi — a single bead of natural rudraksha seed. The three-faced rudraksha symbolises Agni, god of fire, and the triad of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva — determination, knowledge and creative energy. Size — 1.5×1.5×1.5 cm, weight — about 2 g.

What the faces of rudraksha mean

Rudraksha is the seed of the Himalayan Elaeocarpus ganitrus tree, sacred to followers of Shiva. The seed has natural grooves on its surface — "mukhi", or faces — and rudraksha is classified by their number. In Indian tradition each type is linked to its own deity and meaning, so a bead is chosen deliberately, for a purpose. With its natural hole, the bead is ready to become a pendant, part of a bracelet or the guru bead of your own mala.

The sacred meaning of the three-faced rudraksha (3 mukhi)

The three-faced rudraksha is dedicated to Agni, the Vedic god of fire who purifies everything he touches. Its three faces are also linked to the triad of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva — creation, preservation and renewal. In tradition this bead symbolises release from the burden of the past and old mistakes, a surge of energy, self-confidence and the resolve to start anew. Its planet is Mars, which gives courage and the will to act. The three-faced rudraksha is chosen by people going through change who want to let go of guilt or self-doubt and kindle their inner fire. The traditional mantra is "Om Kleem Namah".

Why choose this bead:

How to use

String the bead on a cord or red thread and wear it on the neck or wrist, add it to a bracelet, or use it as the guru bead (sumeru) of a handmade mala. It can be placed on an altar before wearing. Keep rudraksha away from soap and chemicals and wipe it now and then with a dry cloth.
