The 5 mukhi Rudraksha malas of 108+1 beads available in the market contain about 25% beads which float in water. They are porous, and hence powerless, and should be discarded. Of the rest, normally about 80% are 5 Mukhis and the balance are 4 and 6 Mukhis, which should be removed. Defective ones with cuts and holes should be removed. Hence to make a fully tested 5 mukhi mala you really need 2 malas from the market.
The premium quality small beads have to be mixed with the other beads, otherwise the mala is too small for wearing over the head.
We kept several crystal Merus,Crystal Shiva Lingas, Crystal Ganeshas, Gold plated brass Sri Yantras, Parada Shiva Lingas, Narmada Lingas, Parada Merus and Rudrakshas in the great Shata Chandi Yagyam which we performed on 29th December at New Delhi. So what you will be getting is a specially consecrated ones kept in this yagya.
