Handmade Anklet - Turquoise Beads and Rudraskha Beads
Turquoise
Rudraskha Beads
Rudraksha beads are a sacred bead for followers of the teachings of Hinduism, Buddhism and Zen, and have been so for 5000 years. It is said that God looks favorably upon those who wear a Rudraksha bead, purifying them of their sins. Rudraksha beads are used in both meditation and everyday life.
This term "Rudraksha" literally means "the eyes of Lord Shiva" (also known as Rudra). It is written than Shiva meditated for years for the welfare of all living things. When he opened his eyes, tears dropped to the ground, giving origin to Rudraksha trees.
