5-Mukhi Rudraksha Mala (108 + 1 beads)
The japa mala of five-faced beads: 108 and the guru bead
The five-faced rudraksha is linked with Shiva as Kalagni Rudra and with Brihaspati, and is the bead most worn of all. Strung as 108 beads and the guru bead, it is the mala for japa — counting mantras — and for everyday wear.
Choose the size of the beads: 6 mm, 8 mm, or collector beads of 10 to 12 mm.
