Ø  Four faced Rudraksha is the form of the Lord Brahma. It quells the sins of killing a human. Its contact and vision instantaneously bestows the achievement of four aims of the life.

 

The supreme Hindu trinity god Lord Brahma, also known as the creator of this universe, is a master of this type of Rudraksha. He is known as the creator of sacred four Vedas, “Vedanatha” and abode of knowledge as well as creativity. The Lord Brahma is synonymous with the Vedic god Prajapati, Hiranyagarbh, Brahmanspati, or Vishwakarma. Several Puranas describe him as taking birth from the lotus flower, evolved from the naval of Lord Vishnu whereas other Puranas mentioned him as emerging from Lord Shiva and his aspects. Brahma is depicted iconographically with four faces and four arms in Vedas in such a way that each of the four faces represents four unique directions and every four hands represent the knowledge of Vedas (Ancient Hindu Scriptures), mala (rosary) symbolizes loop of time, Sruva symbolizes the methods to feed sacrificial fire and Kamandalu (utensil) with water represents means where all creation radiates from. The consort of Lord Brahma is Saraswati (Savitri or Gayatri), the goddess of knowledge and she is known as the “the embodiment of his power, the instrument of creation and the energy that drives his actions”.

So, it is found from the epics that one who wears this Rudraksha attains the highest level of dwij (twice-born), and transfers himself towards an utterly novel personality and assumes his responsibility differently in his/her life. The dwij concept is based on the Hindu caste system but people have entirely misunderstood this concept and made them based on lineage instead of the profession-based. Because of the close connection with Lord Brahma, the wearer of this Rudraksha is bestowed by a very intelligent mind, balanced mind, and blessed by Goddess Saraswati, the goddess of wisdom. Because it bears the essence of four Vedas, it blesses the wearer with four essentials of life – Dharma, Artha, Kama, and Moksha.

 

According to RudrakShajabala Upanishad, the four Mukhi Rudraksha is described as the form of Lord Brahma as shown:

 

 

The four mukhi Rudraksha is easy to obtain and is the most commonly available Rudraksha. The Rudraksha bead of the four mukhi Indonesian variety is quite smaller in size than that of Nepalese variety and the shape of the beads starts changing towards oval instead of round. A wearer of this Rudraksha becomes highly erudite since his/her power of concentration, deliberation, and learning are strengthened distinctively as well as his/her memory power also increases. Therefore, he can retain whatever knowledge he acquires.

 

Laws are meant to punish the perpetrator that is guilty of the crime and take their course of action but can’t free them from spiritual debt. The sole purpose of this type of Rudraksha is to purify the soul and mind after remorseful action, to create a consciousness, and to create a person repent truly for the action.

 

The ruling planet of this type of Rudraksha is Mercury that benefits one from the good vibration of this planet.
