what is ?/ Siddha Mala

[Guest guest]

Namaskar Srikanth,

 

So good to see you again! Been a long time. Great to know you've

obtained rudraksha beads and made your own Siddha Mala.

 

The top half of the sequence of beads you've outlined is correct. The

9 mukhi should have been strung after 7 mukhi. Ganesh rudraksha

should have gone under 8 mukhi. The rest are correct.

 

Yes if you add GS and 14 mukhi, it can still be termed as Siddha Mala

as GS also stands for Deva and Devi, and 14 mukhi is Deva Mani. The

sequence of beads for a Siddha Mala should be followed, like 2 mukhi,

4 mukhi, 6 mukhi, etc on one side. Then 3 mukhi, 5 mukhi, 7 mukhi on

the other side, etc.

 

Add 14 mukhi after 12 mukhi and GS beneath 13 mukhi.

 

The Siddha Mala will be longer and most probably touch your stomach

when you add 3 beads of each lower mukhi. Its best to use a tape

measure for measuring yourself and the length of beads before you

begin stringing. This is to avoid having to restring again if the

mala is too long.

 

If you wish for assistance in restringing, you can request Rudra

Centre to do this for you. I am not sure if they charge for

restringing. But you need to pay for return postage or courier.

Even if they do, I am sure its only a nominal cost. The mala will

also be blessed in your name before being sent back to you. Please

send them an Enquiry.

 

Om Namah Shivaya
