Rudraksha & Crystal Mala (Wire)

The word Rudraksha comes from “Rudra” (Lord Shiva) and “Aksha” (eyes), meaning the tears of Lord Shiva. The Rudraksha symbolizes Lord Shiva in his five-element form—Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Ether—and is associated with peace and balance.
Sphatik, or Crystal Quartz, represents purity and light. It is linked with Goddess Lakshmi and carries a high vibrational energy that amplifies spiritual power and protects against negativity.

Together, these beads harmonize body, mind, and spirit, enhancing devotion, clarity, and inner peace.
