Lord Shiva is always portrayed
wearing rosary of Rudraksha beads on his head, arms and
hands. With this came the religious, spiritual, physical and
materialistic significance of Rudraksha. This further
brought it path to spiritual enlightment and liberation.
Thereafter ensued the use of holy Rudraksha beads by Shiva
devotees. Hindu scriptures like ShivmahaPurana,
Shreemaddevibhagwat, Padma Purana, ling Purana,
Ashtamalikopnishad, Nirnayasindhoo, Mantramaharnava,
Mahakaal Sanmhita, Rudrakshajabalopnishad,
Vrihajjabalopnishad, Shivaswarodaya and Sarvollastantra
ravishes on how Lord Shiva crossed the line of caste and
creed and blessed all the four varnas, Brahmin, Ksatriya,
Vaisya and Sudra, to use holy Rudraksha beads for their
well-beings. It is also believed that if a person encounters
and meets death while wearing Rudraksha, she/he will surely
attain morkha, meaning liberation from all the sins.
Later the merits of Rudraksha
were evidenced in the late 1960s by a group of scientists
lead by Dr Subas Rai PHD Institute of Technology University
in Banaras India. Dr. Roy's research boosted that as
scripted in the scriptures Rudrakshas indeed possess
Powerful Electromagnetic, Paramagnetic and Inductive
Properties confirmed that the healing powers of Rudraksha
beads flow from their electro-magnetic properties. Many
schools of yogic thoughts advocates for the religious,
scientific and spiritual significance of Rudraksha.
