Excerpts from Holy Books
Shiva Purana, Vidyesvara Samhita, translated by Shastri 1973
A Rudraksa with 14 Faces is the highest Siva. It shall be worn on the head with great devotion.
Mantra is OM

Padma Purana, Chapter 57, translated by Bhatta 1989. The Lord said:
If a man always wears on his head or arm a Rudraksha with fourteen mouths, the mass of Siva's power, he is always honored and approached by Gods due to the greatness of this religious merit. Sacred Hymn for the 14 Mukhi Rudraksha is Om Namo Namah.

Srimaddevibhagavat, 11th Skand, Chapter III, Narayana said:
A man wearing 14 Mukhi Rudraksha on his forehead himself becomes Siva, hence its greatness is indescribable. One who wears even one bead on the forehead is always worshipped like Brahmins and Gods, and attains moksa.

Chapter V, God said:
There is no need to describe the greatness of Rudraksha again and again. It should be worn always for it is superior to all. Those men who wear either the rosary of Rudraksha or even one bead on their head, get rid of all pains, sorrows and sins and attain all the credits. Such men on chanting the names of Siva become superior to all other men.

According to Jabala, instinct for wearing Rudraksha results only after attaining the perfection of Vedas and Blessings of Lord Siva during preceding births. He cannot be killed. He roams like Rudra among other creatures on Earth and is worshipped like Siva by all including deities.

Mantramaharnava. Lord Siva said:
A Rudraksha with 14 Faces is God Srikantha Himself. It gives Moksa (liberation) to all the kith and kin of past generations and its wearer himself attains moksa.
