Nine Mukhi

The nine mukhi Rudraksha is blessed by the magnificent Goddess Maha Durga and her nine divine forms. She is regarded as the goddess of war, the warrior form of Goddess Parvati whose quintessence lies on shielding the evil and demonic forces whose presence threatens the peace, harmony, and Dharma (the power of the light over darkness). The nine forms of Durga is known as Navadurga and this divine bead is worn for the benevolence of the goddess as a defensive shield against all the evil and oppressed forces.
