Chapter VI

The Chanting of mantras are most beneficial when wearing or performing Japa with the holy Rudraksha.

Siva Purana Vidyeshvarasamhita, part 57 to 58, states:
If a person is not liberated after meditation and acquisition of Knowledge he shall wear Rudraksha. He shall be freed from all sins (meaning pain and suffering) and attain the highest goal.

A mantra repeated with Rudraksha is a crore times more efficacious. A person wearing Rudraksha derives a hundred million times more merit.

Part 60
He is a favourite of the 5 deities and a favourite of all gods. O beloved, a devotee shall repeat all mantras wearing a garland of Rudraksha (or counting on the beads).

Mantras for the holy Rudraksha are the five sylabled Namah Shivaya and the MahaMrityunjaya Mantra.

The Aghora Mantra is also used in some instances when the Rudraksha Mala is initiated or energized.

In addition to these mantras, there are Bija Mantra that have been given in the Shiva Purana for each of the holy Rudraksha up to 14 Mukhi, and they are:

• One Mukhi Rudraksha...Aum Hreem Namah
• Two Mukhi Rudraksha...Aum Namah
• Three Mukhi Rudraksha...Aum Kleem Namah
• Four Mukhi Rudraksha...Aum Hreem Namah
• Five Mukhi Rudraksha...Aum Hreem Namah
• Six Mukhi Rudraksha...Aum Hreem Hum Namah
• Seven Mukhi Rudraksha...Aum Hum Namah
• Eight Mukhi Rudraksha...Aum Hum Namah

• Twelve Mukhi Rudraksha...Aum Kraum Ksaum Raum Namah

Sanskrit is an energy-based language where sound vibrations that make up the word or name of the object and the vibrations that form the object are identical. The specific relationship between name and form in the Sanskrit Language is extremely important. This means that form can be changed by sound with added intent and purpose and this process is reflected in the Science of Mantra. This is reflected in Maharishi Patanajali's Sutras. The sound vibrations of the Absolute Field that are the mantras can, with added intent and purpose, change the form of the relative field we live in. This is the process of Maharishi Patanjali's Teaching on Sanyama.

There is a Divine Link between the energy vibration signature that is Lord Ganesha and his mantras and his Eight Mukhi Rudraksha. The Light Energy that is Lord Ganesha responds to the chanting of the sound vibrations of His mantra and the naturally produced electromagnetic vibrations His 8 Mukhi Rudraksha Bead.

When practiced regularly, in 40 day's discipline this energy combination or formula of Mantra and Rudraksha move and remove all obstacles on all levels of life, allowing one to move more freely as the wearer accomplishes intent and purpose.

Each of the different mukhi Rudraksha Beads have a different governing deity or deities and have a specific mantra that enhances the synergistic relationship between Gods and Goddesses, their mantras, their Rudraksha and Mankind and Womankind.
