Wailua Mission Rudraksha Seva

The SSC Wailua Mission regularly meets to have "rudraksha parties," where they prepare rudrakshas for use in malas and prepare jewelry as well, to sell in the Mini Mela. The earnings from rudraksha sales have gone a long way in helping to build Iraivan Temple. This time, the group gets to try out Satya Palani's newly creates rudraksha frames. The seeds are strung on wires within these frames and then pressure washed, producing very clean rudrakshas. Aum Namah Sivaya
