Question 1

What is rudraksha?

Accepted Answer

Rudraksha is the seed of the fruit of an evergreen tree (Elaeocarpus ganitrus) growing in Indonesia, Nepal and East Asia. The Sanskrit word 'rudra-aksha' means 'tear of Shiva'. The seeds have been used for malas, bracelets and meditation tools for millennia in the Hindu and Buddhist traditions — a symbol of protection, stability and spiritual contemplation.

Question 2

How should I wear the rudraksha bracelet?

Accepted Answer

The rudraksha bracelet is worn on the wrist, and by Hindu tradition the left wrist symbolises receiving and the right wrist giving — so women, for example, often wear it on the left wrist. You can choose it for everyday wear or for meditation practices. It combines well with other spiritual jewellery (crystals, malas) worn on the same hand.

Question 3

How do I care for and clean it?

Accepted Answer

Rudraksha is a natural seed, so it is sensitive to prolonged moisture. Keep it away from strong streams of water (direct showering, swimming), and wipe it gently from time to time with a soft cloth. Store it in a dry place, ideally in a jewellery box or textile pouch. The surface will become finer, darker and more patinated through use over time — this is part of the natural process.
