What is Rudraksha?
Rudraksha is a seed from the Rudraksha tree (Elaeocarpus ganitrus), primarily found in the Himalayan region. Rudraksha beads have been used for centuries by spiritual seekers for meditation and attaining enlightenment. Nepa Rudraksha is the largest collector and distributor of premium quality and authentic Rudraksha, with three generations of experience. We pioneer the art of energizing Rudraksha in accordance with Vedic methods at the Lord Pashupatinath temple. Our dedication to quality, Vedic energization, and tradition positions us as a leader in providing genuine Nepali Rudraksha and Shaligram.
What is Shaligram?
A Shaligram is a sacred stone found in the Gandaki River in Nepal, considered a divine manifestation of Lord Vishnu in Hinduism. These stones, often black in color, are naturally occurring ammonite fossils with unique markings and patterns. Devotees venerate Shaligrams as a representation of Lord Vishnu and use them in daily worship and rituals. The stones are revered for their spiritual significance and are believed to bring blessings, protection, and prosperity to those who worship them with devotion.
How is Shaligram Energized?
Energizing a Shaligram involves a sacred process of purification, invocation, and offering. The stone is cleansed and placed on a sacred altar, where devotees invoke Lord Vishnu through specific mantras and prayers. Offerings of flowers, incense, and symbolic items are made to express devotion. Devotees chant Vishnu mantras, visualize divine presence within the Shaligram, and perform aarti to illuminate the sacred energy. The ritual concludes with prayers, expressing gratitude and seeking blessings. The sincerity and devotion in this process establish a spiritual connection with Lord Vishnu through the revered Shaligram.
What are the benefits of shaligram?
Shaligram, revered as a divine manifestation of Lord Vishnu, brings several benefits to devotees. Worship is believed to establish a strong spiritual connection, inviting blessings, protection, and guidance. It symbolizes auspiciousness, aids in obstacle removal, attracts prosperity, and enhances the sanctity of the home. With healing properties and significance in religious practices, Shaligram serves as a tangible link to Lord Vishnu’s divine presence, offering devotees a source of spiritual well-being and positive energy.
What are pooja materials for shaligram?
Essential puja materials for Shaligram worship include water and milk for purification, fresh flowers, incense, fruits, sweets, Tulsi leaves, a lit lamp or diya, sandalwood paste, vermilion, camphor, a bell, prasad, rice, and aromatic substances like dhoop or frankincense. Devotees may also use a book of Vishnu Sahasranama for recitation during the worship. These materials are integral for creating a sacred and spiritually charged atmosphere during Shaligram puja.
