Rules to wear Energized Rudraksha
Energise/Pran Pratishtha rudraksha from a brahmin pandit in a Shiva temple & then wear ur energised rudraksha for first time immediately after its Pran Pratishtha puja.Before you wear your energised rudraksha bead/mala for first time make sure u follow the vidhi of saying the mantras as laid down in scriptures.Hereafter every time you remove or wear ur rudraksha (after its puja) say om-namah-shivayminimum 3 times or 11times .. mansic jap is ok.Rudraksha beads can be worn at all times and scriptures do not mention any Taboo. Since it is an item of energy some people prefer to remove during Sex, visit to funeral grounds and during bowel movements. This is however not compulsory and not mentioned in ancient texts.
After u come back from attending participating in some one's death funeral procession &/or visitingthe cemetery or cremation ground, then 1st thing u should do is take a complete water bath. Make sure u wet ur head & forehead & neck regions thoroughly with water and then wear rudraksh.Make sure there is no rahu kaal & yamghat kaal at time of buying a new mukhi rudraksha bead/mala & the time of doing its Pran Pratishthapuja & also at the time of wearing energised rudraksha bead/mala for the first time,do pls referto panchang.Never touch rudraksh with dirty hands.
Never touch rudraksh with pointer fingers.If at all by mistake u have touched ur rudraksha with dirty hands then pour some good amount of ganga jal on rudraksh & ask forgiveness from lord shiva & then touch rudraksha to lord shiva photo or shivling & then wear it,it is good to keep ganga jal 1 or 2 bottles handy at home.Navratri,shivaratri,mahashivratri & eclipse are auspicious times to dharan rudraksh,there may be some more however i am not aware of it.
If for some reason u are not able to dharan/wear your rudraksha then keep it in a small box at puja place & offer daily namaskar with om-namah-shivaya jap.Sometimes mistakes may happen with rudrakshaafter all we are all humans however a person should remember not to repeat those same mistakes again.Always buy rudraksha from ur own money & not other people's borrowed money, also same applies when u give dakshina to panditji after rudraksh Pran Pratishtha,in case if u do borrow money then make sure u return that amount which u used for purpose of rudraksha, also i feel that one should not bargain when buying rudraksha bead/mala.
Get ur rudraksha bead/mala re energised thru its Pran Pratishtha puja once every year at maha shivaratri or shivratri.It is suggested that u have strong thread to place rudraksh in, or use multiple strands of thread to make it strong so that thread does not break off anytime & rudraksh does not fall to ground.Rudraksha beads or malas should not be exchanged or interchanged after u dharan/wear it.Read more about rudraksha to increase your knowledge on it however also make sure u dont get confused by reading from too many different sources.It is suggested that brush that you use for cleaning rudraksha beads should be used only for 1 time use & then disposed off, every time use a new clean small brush.
There are various amrit yog & siddhi yog timings displayed in jyotish magazines & panchang,if one wishes then one could follow these timings for rudraksh puja or wear rudraksha (for 1st time)during these times.ALWAYS REMEMBER THE AMOUNT OF BENEFIT U GET FROM UR RUDRAKSH WILL ALSO DEPENDON THE AMOUNT OF RESPECT & CARE U SHOW TOWARDS UR RUDRAKSH BEAD..RUDRAKSHAISLORD SHIVA...
