11. ABHARANA🔗

IN THE VEDAGAMIC LIFESTYLE, ABHARANA OR JEWELRY IS NOT ONLY WORN FOR DECORATIVE PURPOSES BUT HAS A SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE. EACH METAL AND JEWEL HOLDS A CERTAIN ENERGY AND PROVIDES SPECIFIC BENEFITS TO THE BODY WHEN WORN. AS A RESULT, PEOPLE ADORN THEMSELVES FULLY FROM HEAD TO TOE.

RUDRAKSHA JEWELRY IS THE TRADITIONAL ABHARANA WORN BY PARAMAŚIVA, AND WHILE PERFORMING THE THRITHIYA VINYASA KRAMA (TVK). AS THE MANIFESTATION OF THE TEARDROP FROM PARAMAŚIVA’S THIRD EYE, THE RUDRAKSHA ENERGY BEAD IS ABLE TO HOLD AND RADIATE ENERGY UNLIKE ANY OTHER STONE.

THE SUNDARA VADAM AND THE KANTHA MALA ARE THE CHOSEN ABHARANA BY THE SPH NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM FOR THE VINYASA KRAMA SEQUENCE.

PARAMAŚIVA SPECIFICALLY MENTIONS HOW SHIVA BHAKTAS SHOULD ADORN THEMSELVES:

THE SUNDARA VADAM ARE THE TRADITIONAL RUDRAKSHA EARRINGS WHICH PROVIDE BALANCE TO THE BODY WHILE PERFORMING THE TVK SEQUENCE. THEY ALSO INCREASE THE SPACE OF LISTENING IN THE YOGI, ALLOWING THEM TO TUNE THEIR BODY TO THE COSMIC GEOMETRY DURING THE PRACTICE.

WEARING THE RUDRAKSHA NECKLACE ON THE VISHUDDHI CHAKRA AS THE KANTHA MALA GIVEN BY THE GURU RADIATES THE ENERGY OF THE MANTRA INITIATED BY THE GURU, ACTING AS A MECHANIZED JAPA FOR THE YOGI. PERFORMING THE TVK SEQUENCE WHILE WEARING THE KANTA MALA AND SUNDARA VADAM TAKES THE RITUAL OF YOGA TO THE NEXT LEVEL, INFUSING THE YOGI WITH THE MASTER'S ENERGY AND ONENESS SPACE AT ALL TIMES.
