This sacred mala of 108 beads is so much more than an ornament—it is a living tool of devotion, rooted in the ancient rhythms of Sanātana Dharma and the wisdom of the sages. In the midst of modern life here in the UK, the Rudraksha Mala offers us a tangible link to the divine—a reminder that we are never separate from Source.
The word Rudraksha comes from Rudra (a form of Lord Shiva) and Aksha (meaning eye). According to the sacred lore, Rudraksha beads were born from the compassionate tears of Bhagavān Shiva, shed during his deep tapas (austerities) for the upliftment of humanity. These tears became seeds, growing into trees whose fruits carry the essence of Shiva’s grace and presence.
When we hold or wear a Rudraksha Mala, we are not simply holding beads—we are holding a sacred vibration, a blessing from Mahādeva himself.
The number 108 is no coincidence. In Vedic and yogic understanding, it mirrors the cosmos—symbolising wholeness, unity, and the cycle of life. The sages say that we have 108 energy channels (nāḍīs) converging at the heart centre. As we move bead by bead in japa (mantra repetition), we gently awaken and align these subtle channels, reconnecting with the wisdom and stillness of our inner Self.
The Rudraksha Mala supports us in many ways, both seen and unseen:
Meditation & Japa – The Mala is traditionally used for mantra chanting. Each bead becomes a moment of presence, helping us stay grounded in the repetition and guiding the mind into stillness.
Healing & Regulation – These blessed seeds are said to calm the nervous system, lower blood pressure, and regulate the body’s subtle energy. Their natural magnetic and electromagnetic properties are believed to harmonise the body with the Earth’s rhythms.
Protection & Energetic Shielding – Rudraksha is also worn as a spiritual armour. It protects the aura, repels negativity, and invites sattvic (pure) vibrations into your field.
Let your heart choose. When selecting a Rudraksha Mala, authenticity is everything. True Rudraksha beads have a natural, textured feel with fine, defined lines. They are earthy, humble, and full of life force.
This is a sacred item—it deserves love and reverence. To honour and preserve its energy:
Occasionally soak the Mala in clean water with a few drops of rose water or Ganga jal (sacred water).
Oil the beads lightly with pure sandalwood or mustard oil to prevent drying and cracking.
When not in use, wrap it in a natural cloth and place it on your altar or sacred space.
To walk with a Rudraksha Mala is to walk with the divine. Whether you are chanting, meditating, or simply wearing it throughout your day, this sacred companion gently reminds you of your true nature—peaceful, eternal, and connected to all that is.
Even here, amidst the modern pace of life in the West, Rudraksha carries the vibration of the Himalayas, the stillness of ancient forests, and the grace of Lord Shiva. It is a tool for healing, a path of devotion, and a thread that binds the heart to the sacred.
May your Mala be more than beads—may it be a bridge back home to your Self.
