Rudraskha is a large evergreen broad-leaved tree which grows in the area from the Gangetic Plain to the foothills of great Himalaya and middle area of Nepal.
Rudraksha Beads have been used for thousands of years as an aid to Self Empowerment and the Fearless Life.
Rudraksha beads have been worn by the yogis and saints of India since at least since the 11th century. The term Rudraksha literally means the third-eye or tears of Shiva. Rudrakshas, often called "miracle beads" are highly revered in India as one of the holiest of all items with numerous mystical powers. Yogis and Monks found that merely wearing the Rudraksha beads gave them astonishingly tremendous amount of tranquility and concentration that enabled them meditate for a long periods of time with spectacular control over their mind. Rudrakshas are also said to maintain health, ensure protection, gain self-empowerment, fulfill all desires & wishes, and achieve all ambitions & objectives.

What is a Japamala?
Close your eyes, take a deep breath, and relax. True bliss inevitably follows. Used by the sages for centuries, Japamala provide focus and steady the mind during meditation. An intimately personal and sacred possession, constant use of a Japamala helps to build its own unique energy, and over time the power of the gemstones becomes apparent to the wearer.
A Japamala or mala is a set of beads commonly used by Hindus and Buddhists, usually made from 108 beads, though other numbers, usually divisible by 9, are also used. Malas are used for keeping count while reciting, chanting, or mentally repeating a mantra or the name or names of a deity.
Mantras are typically repeated hundreds or even thousands of times. The mala is used so that one can focus on the meaning or sound of the mantra rather than counting its repetitions. One repetition is usually said for each bead while turning the thumb clockwise around each bead, though some traditions or practices may call for counter-clockwise motion or specific finger usage. When arriving at the head bead, one turns the mala around and then goes back in the opposing direction. This makes using the mala easier as the beads will not be so tight on the string when you use them.
