Guest guest Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 GEMS WANTED: DEAD OR ALIVE? Good question!? Does any body want some DEAD thing? Apart from a minuscule percentage of lunatics, we cannot imagine anyone wanting something that is DEAD! Dead is considered inauspicious all over the world, and in every religion. People may say so, but, in fact NO BODY likes death OR dead things. Looking at an over view of the many factors involved in classifying any gems in terms of luck, and we see the facts boil down to 4 classes, i.e., 1) Flawless, PERFECT gems 2) Slightly flawed HEALTHY gems 3) moderately flawed SICK gems 4) heavily flawed or DEAD gems. Just like our own bodies. If we are disease free then we're perfect; if we have slight sickness then we're basically healthy. is we have many illness then we're sick, and if the defect or illness is too extreme then we are forced out of the body, leaving a dead body. So when buying gems, always go for the HEALTHY ones because shastra says, "If anyone wears a gem with many flaws (even) out of ignorance, then grief, anxiety, sickness, death, loss of wealth and other evils torment them."--- Sri Garuda Purana:1.70.19 Jyotish quality gems are not very affordable to poor people. Some people actually write to me and say (GRIN), "Dear sir, I am penniless! What gem should I wear?" But in all cases everyone can benefit from different Rudraksha beads. As Lord Mahadeva is greater than all the Grahadevas combined, so is His Rudraksha able to counter bad planets (unlike gems which simply magnify the planet, for better or worse). Rudraksha is also a "gem" and is the gem for all...
