What does 'Mukhi' mean?

Mukhi are the natural vertical lines (facets) running across a Rudraksha bead. The number of lines gives the bead its name, from 1 Mukhi upward.

Which Mukhi is most commonly worn?

5 Mukhi is the most widely worn and is traditionally considered suitable for everyone.

Why are higher Mukhi beads more expensive?

Beads above 14 Mukhi occur rarely in nature, so fewer are available and collector demand is high. Prices shown are live from our catalogue.

Are the associations here guaranteed?

No. Deity and planet associations come from traditional sources and are shared for spiritual interest; no specific outcome is promised.
