Shiva Om Dear Friends,

I would not agree with a blanket statement like that.

The instances when the Rudraksha Mala cannot work in the interest of the person are listed ahead to enhance better understanding :

1.  This situation may arise if a person has thrown it down on the ground with disrespect/ anger / frustration / disbelief, etc.

2. In cases where the Rudraksha beads are cracked, chipped or broken when they have fallen then certainly the issue may arise that they will not be able to perform well.

3. If they have fallen in something that is unholy then again a situation could arise where the ability of the Rudraksha beads becomes questionable.

However, if it has harmlessly fallen down without any malefic intention then in such a case in my opinion no such conclusion is to be drawn.

One can simply ask for “Kshama Yachana” ( A prayer for forgiveness ) and re wear the Mala or then use it for Meditation purpose, as the case may be.

I sincerely hope that this crisp Blog has been able to answer the question effectively.

Shivam Kalyanam,
