To devotees of Lord Shiva, Rudraksha holds special significance. Lord Shiva has no Adi or Anitya. He is formless, immortal, and timeless. He is Bholenath and akin to the name, he gets appeased so easily once you pray to him. Today, in this blog post we will discuss types of rudrakshas & connections with nine planets in astrology. We will also learn how the Rudraksha helps erase negativity and increases the power of planets through the special information shared by the famous astrologer in Kolkata, Astrologer Sourav Chatterjee (Roy).
Legend of Rudraksha – Tears of Lord Shiva
According to Hindu Mythology, there was a time when Lord Shiva was in a deep penance (state of deep dhyan) for such a long period. He was immersed in himself and later he woke up. Once he opened his eyes, tears fell on the ground from his eyes and transferred into a seed. It is believed that the seed grew into a tree and it became the Rudraksha tree. The seeds of the tree are known as Rudraksha and these are also known as the “Tears of Lord Shiva”. According to Shiva Purana, for individuals who consider wearing a Rudraksha with faith and sanity in mind, Lord Shiva protects them and helps them overcome hurdles in their personal and spiritual journey.
