5 Mukhi Rudraksha Mala 108 Beads 7-8mm for Meditation

A 5 Mukhi Mala (7–8 mm beads) is a traditional prayer necklace made from five-faced Rudraksha beads, widely used for spiritual practice, meditation, and daily wear.

🌿 What “5 Mukhi” means

Each bead has five natural lines (mukhis) on its surface. These are associated with Lord Shiva in his form as Kalagni Rudra, symbolizing protection, purification, and inner peace.

• Strung together with thread or silk, sometimes with knots between beads for durability.
