Why Rudra Centre’s Rudraksha Prices Are Affordable & Honest

When people see the prices of our Rudraksha beads, one of the first questions they ask is: “How can Rudra Centre sell genuine beads at such affordable rates?” Some even wonder if a lower price means lower quality. The truth is exactly the opposite — our pricing reflects our ethics, experience, and deep respect for this sacred bead, not any compromise in quality.

Price Disparity Across Suppliers

Being classified as rare, Rudraksha beads are often marked up by suppliers according to their clientele. Since these beads are not commonly sold in regular shops, most buyers cannot make a true “apple-to-apple” comparison.

The difference is striking — common beads like 4, 5, and 6 mukhi, which should cost under ₹100, are often sold elsewhere for thousands. For example, our 7 Mukhi Rudraksha is priced at ₹495, yet the same bead is sold for ₹5,000 by other sellers. If lower mukhis are inflated so heavily, imagine the pricing of higher mukhis in such markets.

Rudraksha	Java Price (INR)	Nepal Price (INR)
2 Mukhi	325	9100
3 Mukhi	90	450
4 Mukhi	20	90
5 Mukhi	20	45
6 Mukhi	20	90
7 Mukhi	100	495
8 Mukhi	450	4300
9 Mukhi	1100	6700
10 Mukhi	1800	6500
11 Mukhi	1500	7500
12 Mukhi	2100	8200
13 Mukhi	2200	13700
14 Mukhi	5000	63000

The Size Grade Reality – How Prices Are Often Inflated

There is no standard size grading rule in the market. What we classify as small may be sold by others as large . What we call large is sometimes labeled antique or collector grade — with the price multiplied accordingly.

Our size grade sheets (for both Java and Nepali Rudraksha) clearly define true measurements, so you know exactly what you’re paying for. This honest approach ensures you are not overpaying for a bead that has simply been misclassified.

Complete Guide to Rudraksha Sizes Grades

In recent years, the attraction for oversized beads has led some farmers inject medicines and hormones to produce large, bulbous beads of 35mm or more. These beads often have closed mukhi lines, are less dense, more porous, and yet are sold at astronomical prices. We encourage our clients to avoid using these beads as they are not effective.

At Rudra Centre, we advise clients to choose Rudraksha for their effects, not their size or hype — select beads that are wearable, effective, and aligned with your purpose, not just those that command a high market price.

Careful Selection – Only the Best Beads for Our Clients

At Rudra Centre, we work only with farmers and traders we know and trust. In today’s market, manipulation of Rudraksha beads has reached such a high level that even a keen, trained eye can be deceived — sometimes a fake bead will only be discovered much later. That’s why we have a strict code of ethics with our trusted farmers and suppliers: they know that passing a fake bead to us would mean losing our business forever.

Even so, every single bead we purchase undergoes our own minute testing processes. These are primarily manual inspections conducted by our highly experienced team, but where necessary, we also use instruments and machines for verification.

From the total harvest, around 50% of beads are rejected immediately for being cracked, lightweight, unhealthy, or insect bitten. Of the remaining half, another 20–30% are rejected for having incomplete mukhi lines — lines that do not run from one end of the bead to the other — which renders them ineffective for healing purposes.

The rejected beads are not wasted; we sell them at lower prices to local traders who look for cheap bulk deals. But for our clients, we pass on only the healthiest, densest, and most complete beads — those capable of delivering the true spiritual and healing benefits of Rudraksha.

Unfortunately, most other suppliers do not follow such stringent selection. Many will sell beads with broken thorns, cracked lines, incomplete mukhi lines, oversized drill holes, or even cover defects with fancy caps to pass them off as premium quality. Selling fake or compromised beads for huge margins is, sadly, common — temptation for profit often outweighs their fear of God. At Rudra Centre, our commitment is to truth, integrity, and the sanctity of the Rudraksha.

Cleaned, Preserved, and Kept Sacred

Once selected, our Rudraksha beads are soaked in water for 8–10 hours, gently cleaned with a brush, dried in the shade, and stored in hygienic environments. We even keep them in refrigerators to preserve freshness and potency.

We also ensure the stringing process maintains purity and durability. Our Rudraksha is strung using high-grade natural cotton or silk thread — never nylon — to allow the bead to breathe and retain its life force. Most of our designs are finished in 925 sterling silver, not cheap German silver, copper, or brass, ensuring both aesthetic beauty and energetic integrity.

This careful storage and stringing process ensures that when you receive your bead, it is in optimal condition physically, energetically, and spiritually.

By contrast, some sellers store beads in bottles or boxes that soon get infested, apply harsh chemicals to prevent this, or seal them in plastic casings with certificates — cutting off the bead’s ability to “breathe” and draining its natural energy.

The RRCT Advantage – Harnessing Full Potential

Even the most powerful Rudraksha will not deliver results if it is not strung and worn correctly. At Rudra Centre, every bead is strung according to Rudraksha Ratna Chakra Therapy® (RRCT) — a method I developed after over two decades of research and practical healing experience.

RRCT placement aligns the bead precisely with the body’s energy system, ensuring that its full potential is harnessed. Without this, even the finest bead is like a button on a shirt — present, but not serving its true purpose.

Our Pricing Philosophy – Volume Over Exorbitance

Since launching the first website in the world dedicated to Rudraksha, our outreach has grown enormously. With a large client base and consistent global demand, we have the privilege of working with high sales volumes.

Instead of inflating prices for a handful of sales at exorbitant amounts, we focus on keeping prices reasonable so that the maximum number of people can benefit from this sacred gift of nature. Our mission is to make authentic Rudraksha accessible to all sincere seekers — not just a privileged few.

Many vendors mislead customers by overpricing lower mukhi Rudraksha beads (which are common and easily available) while selling higher mukhi beads at very low prices. This is a trap. In most such cases, the higher mukhi beads are fake or tampered — either extra lines are carved or beads are glued to imitate rare mukhis. Customers are fooled into thinking they are getting “rare” beads or that other sellers have “low quality” lower mukhis. This gimmick helps such vendors maximize profits. At Rudra Centre, we follow an honest and transparent pricing policy. Our beads are 100% natural, lab-tested, and correctly classified, ensuring that you receive authentic Rudraksha at fair value.

Final Word

Affordable pricing at Rudra Centre does not mean lower quality — it means ethical sourcing, honest grading, careful selection, correct stringing, and a commitment to large-scale accessibility.

When you buy from us, you receive a bead that is genuine, powerful, and ready to work for you from the moment you wear it.
