Guest guest Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 Om Andrew, you are most welcome. Glad you performed some dowsing which led to conclusion that its "yes". Also glad you are a free thinker. Fully understand your Buddhist beliefs. Its also great that you took the time finally to clarify the applicability of rudraksh to your situation. Due to stress and many other factors in modern society (environmental, etc), the need for external energy aids have become important. Rudraksh, due to its natural electromagnetic properties are highly recommended. When used with meditation and prayers, it has the potential to further enhance the alpha state in the brain which brings about relaxation, calmness, peace and balance.
