Guest guest Posted March 5, 2003 Report Share Posted March 5, 2003 Namaste Nileshji: I am pretty certain we have someting on this listed in the subject Index file. Coming from an Anglo Culture. I relate to the colors differently..more according to color healing or a better way is how shakti emanates and interacts with wearer via different colors. I have seen Nepal beads that also are Orange. Please check the files because I am starting to recall someone might have posted something from one of the Holy Scriptures Om Shanti.

Guest guest Posted March 5, 2003 Report Share Posted March 5, 2003 I have noticed and read somewhere that there are different colors of rudrakshas. White is from Brahmana, Yellow for Vaishya, Red for Khatriya and black is for Shudra. Does anybody follow these rules? I am wearing a combination of Red, Yellow and black beads.

Guest guest Posted March 5, 2003 Report Share Posted March 5, 2003 Dear Mr. Nilesh, As you have mentioned, Rudraksha colours and which 'Varna' should wear which specific colour bead is all artificial and was ok for the earlier period when there was a 'Chaturvarnya System' was adopted in our society. Now, as you know the time has changed and all such beliefs are un-necessary. White bead is extremely rare and there is no authenhtically publilshed report about its existence. We get, sandy white beads in 3 mukhi and rarely in 1mukhi Nepal Round bead which is extremely rare. Other colour beads are available. Red and brown are more common and black beads are few in nos. You get beautiful light yellow or shiny cream coloured beads. There are also beads of mixed colour, which generally show mosaic pattern if you observe them under the lens. Colour has no meaning. The bead is important. I met few persons in the field of 'Shaivism' who are of the opinion that even it is not important to insist on any particular type of definite Mukhi bead if it is not available, the only important thing is to have faith in beads you are wearing, even ordinary 5mukhi also gives all results. Thanking you and with best wishes. Chandrashekhar Phadke nilesh_chandode <nilesh_chandode wrote:I have noticed and read somewhere that there are different colors of rudrakshas.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2003 Report Share Posted March 6, 2003 The multi- colored beads are so beautiful. I have two..a 9 and a 12 I can't bring myself to string and use them on a puja as they have a coloration on the top around the hole just like flowers! That 12m we found for you was great..reminded me of sunshine :-) Received some new 9's for a mala project I am working on and the oil that was used for blessing is so heavenly..very sweet and you can smell it on the beads when wearing them :-) Definately not sandalwood.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2003 Report Share Posted March 6, 2003 What kind of oil is that!? It was on the Kantha I received. I enjoyed it too. My sandalwood oil doesn't smell like that.
