Excerpts from Holy Book
Shiva Purana Vidyesvara Samhita Translated by Shastri 1973
A Rudraksa with fourteen faces is the highest Siva. It shall be worn on the head with great devotion.
Mantra is OM
Padma Purana Chapter 57 Translated by Bhatta 1989. THE LORD said-
If a man always wears on his head or arm a Rudraksa with fourteen mouths, the mass of Sivas's power, he is always honored and approached by gods due to the greatness of this religious merit Sacred Hymn for the 14 Mukhi Rudraksa is OM NAMO NAMAH
Srimaddevibhagavat 11th Skand Chapter III. NARAYANA said-
A man wearing fourteen mukhi Rudraksa on his forehead himself becomes Siva, hence its greatness is indescribable. One who wears even one bead on the forehead is always worshipped like Brahmins and gods and attains moksa.
Chapter V, GOD said-
There is no need to describe the greatness of Rudraksa again and again. It should be worn always for it is superior to all. Those men who wear either the rosary of Rudraksa or even one bead on their head, get rid of all pains, sorrows and sins and attain all the credits................ Such men on chanting the names of Siva become superior to all other men.
According to Jabala , instinct for wearing Rudraksa results only after attaining the perfection of Vedas and Blessings of Lord Siva during preceding births He cannot be killed. He roams like Rudra among other creatures on earth and is worshipped like Siva by all including deities
Mantramaharnava . LORD SIVA said-
A Rudraksa with fourteen faces is God Srikantha Himself. It gives Moksa liberation to all the kith and kin of past generation and its wearer himself attains moksa.
