Description
The Ratna (gemstones) and Rudraksha (bead made from the seeds of the Rudraksha tree) pooja is a sacred ritual in Hindu tradition, deeply rooted in spiritual significance and cultural heritage. This ceremonial worship involves the offering of prayers, mantras, and specific rituals dedicated to these divine elements believed to possess mystical and healing properties.
Ratna Pooja: Gemstones, or Ratnas, are revered for their association with the nine planets (Navagrahas) in Hindu astrology. Each planet is believed to influence human life and destiny, and specific gemstones are associated with mitigating the malefic effects of these planets or enhancing their positive influence. For instance:
- Ruby (Manikya) is linked with the Sun (Surya) and is worn to enhance vitality and leadership qualities.
- Pearl (Moti) is associated with the Moon (Chandra) and promotes emotional balance and tranquility.
- Emerald (Panna) is connected with Mercury (Budh) and is believed to enhance intellect and communication skills.
During Ratna pooja, devotees typically offer these gemstones to the associated deities of the respective planets amidst chanting of mantras and prayers. The gemstones are often cleansed and energized through specific rituals conducted by priests or individuals practicing astrology and spirituality.
