Importance of 15 mukhi Rudraksha

Fifteen faced Rudraksha is an immense powerful Rudraksha for those working with Spiritual Techniques to accomplish Mukti that is freedom from bondage and Moksa that is Liberation in this physical lifetime. Pashu means individual soul or Jeeva , Pati means Lord and God and Master and Siva all as one in the same. Pashupati is Lord of Individuals , Lord Siva Lord of animals.

According to Saiva Siddhanta the individual soul that is Jeeva by nature is infinite, pervasive and omnipresent. However due to what is described as impurities individuals sometimes experience themselves as finite, limited and ignorant. These impurities that can sometimes bind an individual are called Paasha and are three in nature. They are anava and karma and maya. Literal meaning of Paasha is a rope. It is comprised of three strands that are anava the impurity of ignorance, karma the impurity of action and maya the power of obscuration .These three can tie the individual soul into bondage.

Anava is ignorance. It is a beginning less positive inert energy that can causes delusion however it can be destroyed. It is said that this is possibly the original cause of an individuals bondage.

Karma forges bondage of the individual resulting from actions of thought work or deed. Karma can produce merit and demerit that can tie the individual to the wheel of birth and death. Karma can also be pacified and destroyed. Maya provides the individual with its bodies instruments and objects of experience. It creates the universe for ones advancement though under the influence of ignorance it can become misused and become a fetter. Maya can be destroyed . According to Kashmir Saivism individual souls are called bound or Pashu due to these three limitations caused by impurities. As individual souls move forward on thier Spiritual Path their true nature manifests that is eternal, real, identical with Lord Siva and essentially unlimited, all pervading and are an ever conscious luminosity.

Liberation comes when the soul remembers its identity with Lord Siva. Once all the obstacles are removed this remembering can take place in this physical lifetime .

The Lord Pashupati Rudraksha is the only one found to date that works with Mukti and Moksa in this manner and is an exceptional Rudraksha for the Spiritual Path.
