A Rudraksha mala is a sacred and revered accessory in Hinduism and various spiritual practices. It is a string of prayer beads made from the seeds of the Rudraksha tree (Elaeocarpus ganitrus), which is found predominantly in the region and other parts of Southeast Asia. The word "Rudraksha" is derived from the combination of two Sanskrit words: "Rudra," which is another name for Lord Shiva, and "Aksha," which means eye. Hence, Rudraksha can be loosely translated as "tears of Shiva."
Each bead on a Rudraksha mala is characterized by its unique appearance, consisting of multiple facets or "mukhis" on its surface. These mukhis are natural grooves or furrows that run from the top to the bottom of the bead. The number of mukhis can vary from one to twenty-one or more, with each type of bead being associated with a particular deity, energy, or purpose.
Rudraksha malas are highly regarded for their spiritual significance and are believed to possess mystical and healing properties. They are used as a tool for meditation, mantra chanting, and prayer. Wearing or using a Rudraksha mala is thought to enhance one's spiritual practice, facilitate inner calmness, and provide a deep connection to the divine
